“It is selfish to concern oneself with tragedies.”

No one will ever feel sorry for me.

Modern candidates seem to have to live with political matters all the time. In my father’s time, a politician’s home was still his castle.

I tried to allow my children to take risks, to test themselves. Better broken bones than broken spirit.

In my life, I am often reminded that there is a destiny that rules over us, because no one whom I know about or whom I read about seems to be completely happy during a long time.

Make sure you never, never argue at night. You just lose a good night’s sleep, and you can’t settle anything until morning anyway.

My greatest regret is not having gone to Wellesley College. it is something I have felt a little sad about my whole life.

I looked on child rearing not only as a work of love and duty but as a profession that was fully as interesting and challenging as any honorable profession in the world and one that demanded the best that I could bring to it.

My father was a great innovator in public life, but when it came to raising his daughters, no one could have been more conservative.

My father had extravagant notions of my beauty, grace, wit, and charm.

There’s nothing I like less than bad arguments for a view that I hold dear.

It’s our money, and we’re free to spend it any way we please.

Whatever be the means adopted, you must at last return to the Self, so why not abide as the Self here and now?

Love is verily the heart of all religions.

Remain still, with the conviction that the Self shines as everything yet nothing, within, without, and everywhere.

Guru, God and Self are One.
