Quote by Rick Moranis

Summary

This quote reflects the decision of the speaker, who is an actor, to take a break from their career in filmmaking. The reason behind this choice was the difficulties they faced in balancing their responsibilities as a single parent with the demands of a busy travel schedule. The speaker's decision arose from a desire to be more present for their young children, as they realized that communication from remote locations was not sufficient for maintaining a strong connection. Ultimately, prioritizing their role as a parent led to the temporary pause in their professional pursuits.
