I hope that I serve by being a teacher.

When you grow up as the daughters of George and Laura Bush, you develop a special appreciation for how blessed we are to live in this great country.

As a teacher you can see the difference in kids who have parents who were involved. That difference, by the time these kids get to the third grade, is drastic.

My dad saw my husband's boss at a conference, and he said to stop paying my husband until we produce children.

I'm aware that not all kids can pick up and fly to Panama. I'm very lucky.

I can't wish I weren't something that I am.

I don't have any children. I just have a cat, to my parents' dismay.

I didn't go to Latin America thinking, 'I'm gonna write a book. This is what I'm gonna do.' I went there to work for UNICEF and to learn.

I'm just not political. I have opinions, but there's nothing about the process that has ever interested me. I'm 22, and this is the first interview I've ever done in my life.

My first cat was named Cowboy, after the Dallas Cowboys.

Kids are so dynamic; if you're tired and you walk into a roomful of kids, your energy is brought up to their level.

The most powerful force on earth is residing in your heart

Posting your thoughts on any social media site is like telling you most deeply held secret to the town gossip. Not a wise move.

You really should stay away from me.

Imagine Martin Luther King saying, 'I have a dream ... But I don't know if the others will buy it.'

Now we're in an age of singles. It's actually always been more about singles for most of music history.

The Lord wants us to be filled with hope-not just because it points us to a brighter tomorrow, but because it changes the quality of our lives.

Man does not live by a turkey in every oven or a color TV set in every home. Man lives by faith and hope and love, by the star on the horizon, by the trumpet that will not call retreat.

You can't plan anything, right? You can try.

Human rights are not a privilege conferred by government. They are every human being's entitlement by virtue of his humanity.

The strangest thing about life is not its frightful cruelty, but that it can be gentle.
