The First Lady is going to be criticized no matter what she does.

I'm not saying to be happy you must be married. Nor am I saying that to be happy you need children. I'm saying that if you opt for children - be you man or woman - you have to take care of them.

The personal things should be left out of platforms at conventions. You can argue yourself blue in the face, and you're not going to change each other's minds. It's a waste of your time and my time.

I do have the most marvelous husband, children, and grandchildren.

One thing I can say about George... he may not be able to keep a job, but he's not boring.

Some people give time, some money, some their skills and connections, some literally give their life's blood . . . but everyone has something to give.

Whether you are talking about education, career, or service, you are talking about life. And life must really have joy. It's supposed to be fun.
