Saddam Hussein is being treated the exact opposite of the way his regime treated those he imprisoned and tortured simply for expressing their opinions. And so I reject that.

The Orange Revolution was a powerful example of democracy around the world. The people of Ukraine are continuing to shape their own future.

I fell far short of living up to the kind of public servant I wanted to be.

I'm glad to share my views.

Despite what some people have said, President Bush did not want black people to die in New Orleans. However, he did hope they would not relocate to any areas of Texas that he likes to frequent.

I was raised on the values of speaking up and making a positive difference in a very political family that believed in the importance of public service.

When I was knowingly misled but only learned that much later, that's really when I started to become disillusioned at the White House.

As press secretary, I spent countless hours defending the administration from the podium in the White House briefing room.

Waging an unnecessary war is a grave mistake.

Churches are like announcement factories that pump toxic levels of noise pollution into the atmosphere.

Isn't it my right to talk and say what I want to?

More lies, but maybe lies were better than the truth.

It used to be called boogie-woogie, it used to be called blues, used to be called rhythm and blues...It's called rock now.

People take conventional ways that other people have always decorated their cars, and use them as ways of giving other people permission to approach them.

One wastes so much time, one is so prodigal of life, at twenty! Our days of winter count for double. That is the compensation of the old.

New Orleans is like the bad-kid island in 'Pinocchio.'

Keep your passions in check, but beware of giving your reason free rein.

When I started out, I wanted to have everything solved by the time I was 30. That didn't happen. Instead, I realized that the journey is the destination, that the work.

Even though it seems like there are a lot of parts, there is really tons of downtime in the acting world.

No, you are not to complain or question who you are, but instead, grow, reaching for the light that's inside you.

It takes energy, mental toughness and spiritual reinforcement to successfully deal with life's opportunities, and to reach your objectives.
