Michael Gregor Gilman

"He (Brando) had five more children by unidentified women: …Michael Gregor Gilman (born 1967), who was adopted by Brando's longtime friend Sam Gilman…"

"Is he Brando's son, or not?"

I say... decide for yourself. The truth simply is, and I can accept that. Fear or love? Choose love.



Nice birthmark on those cheeks.
Michael Gilman, Bessie Gahan Pennebaker Myres, and Marlon Brando.






"A positive attitude may not solve your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort."

"And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom."
~ Anais Nin

"You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.'
You must do the thing you think you cannot do."

~ Eleanor Roosevelt

"Our lives are merely a reflection of the quality of our own heart. If we work towards understanding, removing the flaws as we keep putting one foot in front of the other, the truth will finally unfold."
~ Michael Gilman




Christian, Jocelyn, and Sam Gilman
"The truth, sometimes seems better than it really is
And sometimes the truth isn't worth shit
Well then, that's it, baby
All she wrote
And the fat lady won't sing
And blue in the face won't do it
And tears and wringing of hands
Doesn't pass muster
So you might as well soak your head
Or take a long long walk
Or shove it
Isn't that sad
The only recourse you have is to
Clutch the bloody truth to your bosom
And feel righteous
And that's not nearly enough recompense
For the wear and tear, is it"

-Jocelyn Brando
