“I would not run for president. I really like what I’m doing now. People say I’m giving them energy and hope.”

We are all different. Yet we are all God’s children. We are all united behind this country and the common cause of freedom, justice, fairness, and equality. That is what unites us.

I am very enamored with the free press, and I was part of it for a period of time.

The White House has embarked on a mission to convince the people of our country that Social Security is in dire need of drastic change in order to save it for all workers

Nothing is alarmist with Donald Trump because you don’t really know what he’s going to do.

If it’s racist, it’s racist. If it’s anti-Semitic, it’s anti-Semitic. If it’s anti-women, it’s anti-women. If it’s anti-immigrant, it’s anti-immigrant, and we need to really strengthen our language, so that it is clear and not mushy.

We have to be realistic about what we can achieve in Afghanistan. The notion that the United States can build a Western-style democracy there is a myth

I am sure that every one of my colleagues “Democrat, Republican, and Independent” agrees with that statement. That in the voting booth, every one is equal.

The American people as a whole are really pretty moderate. They’re not, as a whole, conservative or liberal. The right wing is marching the Republican Party off a cliff.

You take what you’ve learned, you pass it down, and you keep working.

Who knows when Donald Trump will have a press conference? Maybe he’s just going to stay in Trump Tower and issue tweets – you know, gold-plated tweets to the American people. It’s scary.

If you don’t move to protect copyright, if you don’t move to protect our children, it’s not going to sit well

I think the scientists have really caught the attention of the people of this country, and of course, they elected representatives by their very clear pronouncement that if we don’t do something, we’ll be in a lot of trouble.

In the early stages of a pregnancy, the Government cannot intervene with a woman’s right to choose. That is it, plain and simple. Guess what. We are not going to be big brother or sister, as the case may be. We are going to allow a woman, her doctor, and her God to make that decision.

Perhaps, one of our greatest challenges as a nation, as a people, as human beings making sure that our grandkids can live on this Earth.

I know from my constituency what is going on. Doctors that are told, begged, by mothers, ‘Please don’t write down that my child as asthma. Please lie and say it’s bronchitis, because if you write down asthma, when my child turns 18 or 20 and has to get his or her own insurance, it will be a pre-existing condition.’

Really, life is complicated enough without having a bunch of Senators deciding what we should do in the privacy of our own homes.

I’ll be yours until the stars fall from the sky, yours until the rivers run dry. In other words, until the day I day.

The little island seemed to float on the dark lake-waters. Trees grew on it, and a little hill rose in the middle of it. It was a mysterious island, lonely and beautiful.

A picture story just doesn’t run like a film. It doesn’t have 24 frames per second. It doesn’t deal with this illusion of movement.

There is so much to do on a film set. It is an extraordinarily invigorating and wonderful place to be, when things are running well.

As long as a journalist tells the truth, in conscience and fairness, it is not his job to worry about consequences. The truth is never as dangerous as a lie in the long run. I truly believe the truth sets men free.

I never intended to be a run-of-the-mill person.

Fear can keep you alive. The trick is not to let it overwhelm you. Not to let it rule you. If you’re afraid, that’s the universe trying to tell you something. Get away. Don’t run; don’t panic. Just pick up and walk out, calm as you please. Panic makes you stupid.

From what we’ve heard about George W., he has a lot issues that he wants to run on. They’re positive. They’re good. He thinks he’s got a good vision for America.
