Mandy Patinkin
Everything I am came from my parents. I don't take that much credit for who I am and what I am.
Mandy Patinkin
All great men usually are awakened by the great women in their lives. No matter what friction is there, if that relationship was there, that usually is their best friend, at the end of the day.
