Fatherhood is the best thing I ever did. It changes your perspective. You can write a book, you can make a movie, you can paint a painting, but having kids is really the most extraordinary thing I have taken on.
Interpretation
Fatherhood offers a profound change in perspective and fulfillment like no other achievement.
In this quote, Brad Pitt expresses that becoming a father is the most significant and transformative experience of his life. He compares fatherhood to various creative accomplishments, emphasizing that no matter how successful or artistic one may be, the experience of raising children provides a unique sense of wonder and purpose that surpasses all other endeavors.

Equality, absolutely, that's what defines us. It's what makes us great. If it doesn't sit well with your religion, let your God sort it out in the end, but that's us. We're equal
Is my mother my friend? I would have to say, first of all she is my Mother, with a capital 'M'; she's something sacred to me. I love her dearly...yes, she is also a good friend, someone I can talk openly with if I want to.
What a child doesn't receive he can seldom later give.
Every woman's path is difficult, and many mothers were as equipped to raise children as wire monkey mothers. I say that without judgment: It is, sadly, true. An unhealthy mother's love is withering.
She wondered if this was true of every parent: if, prior to having children, they all used to be someone else.
