Shakespeare set a lot of his dramas in a historical perspective or war perspective, or he would study what was going on at that time.
I love being a mother; I hate being a housewife - the cooking, the laundry - because it takes away time I could be with my kids.
It's very hypocritical to constantly say, 'We want to keep our kids close,' then send them home with so much homework that family time becomes nonexistent.
My work often takes me away from my family for long periods of time, so I've really come to appreciate the time I do spend with them.
You know what I miss? I miss myself, that time to just do things for myself.
