Everybody has problems. Everyone has issues.

I'd sit on a horse and forget I was even sick.

When you're used to being healthy and strong and vibrant and everything and then - bang - overnight you're desperately ill, it's frightening.

We need to respect choices that women make.

We are all children of the same God, and we have to come together to solve our problems and not be fighting so much.

I know what it's like to struggle and to have those concerns that all mothers have.

They were not easy years. You have to understand, I was raised in a lovely neighborhood, as was Mitt, and at BYU, we moved into a $62-a-month basement apartment with a cement floor and lived there two years as students with no income... Neither one of us had a job, because Mitt had enough of an investment from stock that we could sell off a little at a time.
