The only thing we have is each other.

I'm particularly committed to the political people who needed defense. I understand that they're fighting a bigger war than just, "Let me go get some money for cocaine tonight."

Pain is an event ... Suffering, on the other hand, is the nightmare reliving of unscrutinized and unmetabolized pain.

I have to admit it that the large quantity of US money poured into Vietnam provoked ii...a lot of bad habits.

I think that Bible principles will help anybody.

If I'm just at the White House, I have meetings in my office, I sign letters, I plan different things. Late in the afternoon, I'll quit working and wait for my husband to get home.

Where I come from, the block become your daddy.
