The cloud of doubt that surrounds political figures tends to remain and never dissipate or be clarified.

We're not going to have another Watergate in our lifetime. I'm sure.

I was born in Santa Monica but brought up abroad so I don't use English much.

A truly elegant taste is generally accompanied with excellency of heart.

I would like to think that I will be remembered as someone who had some positive impact on the sociosexual values of his time. And I think I'm secure and happy in that.
