Brian Herbert Quotes

Oh, my family lived in 21 places before I was 17.

I was in, like, nine schools by ninth grade, so I moved a ton of times when I was younger.

We lived in 14 different houses until I was 8, renting here and there.

I had moved around my whole life. That was the one thing that was always so hard.

My family moved a lot as a kid. We started in Colorado, where I lived for five years. We moved to Chicago for two years, to San Francisco for one year, Connecticut for seven, Oregon for a couple years, and then I went to school.

We moved around a ton when I was a kid. I think we lived in 9 different houses before I was 15 - we moved from the city back to the suburbs; different suburbs, different houses, all over the place.

We lived in eight or nine different houses and six or seven different apartments growing up.

Growing up as a kid, we moved all over the country on a fairly frequent basis, from New Jersey to Texas, California, Illinois... we moved 21 times in my first 17 years.

When I was growing up, I never felt that I belonged anywhere because we never lived in a house for more than three months. That's all I knew, and that's why I don't really belong anywhere.

The other thing is I don't want to move any more. I have moved so many times in my life.

My family moved a lot as a kid. We started in Colorado, where I lived for five years. We moved to Chicago for two years, to San Francisco for one year, Connecticut for seven, Oregon for a couple years, and then I went to school. So I was always moving, I'm still always moving.

Home is where I am. Sadly, I don't need a history to be able to exist somewhere. When I was still very young, my father told me: 'Look, we will always have to move, again and again.' I thought that was marvelous! That's how I got used to thinking that life meant starting from scratch, over and over again.

I was born in L.A., then we moved to Hawaii, then we moved to New York, then we moved to Baltimore, then we moved to California, then we moved to Hawaii, then we moved to Texas, then we moved to Hawaii, then we moved to California. This was before I was 17.

I lived just outside of L.A. for a long time. My dad was in the military, so I moved a lot.

I am a Maharashtrian but was not brought up in Maharashtra, as my father worked in CPWD and was transferred every two years. So I have always been a gypsy. I, therefore, could not make good friends, and it still takes me a long time to form attachments.

I'm an army brat - so I grew up traveling every two to four years.

My dad didn't like staying in one place, so we moved around every year - to a new house, new town, new country.

I grew up in a family that moved around a lot. I changed schools eight or nine times.

When I was little, we moved around a lot, actually. In second grade, I think I went to three different schools. We were in Nevada and Oregon and as well as a few different places in Nebraska. I did go to high school in the same town.

I went to 13 schools in 12 years. We moved all over the place. Music was the only thing that I could get behind... I wasn't that good at socializing. I'm still not.

I'm never anywhere for more than three weeks.

I was in a military family, so by the time I was 13 I'd lived in six different places.

I'm really in no one city more than two months during the year. I'm constantly having to readapt my eye to new locations.

I live in too many cities.

I wasn't really living anywhere... I was just kinda hanging out. I would live from week to week in places.
