“I'm a late bloomer.” — Frank McCourt Quote

“I'm a late bloomer.”

“Some, like Mother Teresa, are born with a gene to help the poor, and some are born with a gene to write. I was born with a gene to tell my story, and I just had to.”

“You look at passers-by in Rome and think, 'Do they know what they have here?' You can say the same about Philadelphia. Do people know what went on here?”

“I was definitely a late bloomer and didn't really come into my own until I was probably in my 20s.”

“I'm a late bloomer. Being a late bloomer is a problem when you decide at 40 you want to have children.”

“I love the stuff I recorded with Ron Sexsmith, the album is called 'Long Player Late Bloomer' and it's beautiful.”
