My marriage is incredibly important to me. It's the place from which I engage in the world every day, and the place to which I return every day.

I love the right words. I think economy and precision of language are important.

My most important identity now is as a mother.

My parents taught me to approach the world critically, but also to approach it with a sense of responsibility.

I'm definitely voting for First Gentleman.

As a mom, what I found so disturbing were the things that were being said on a national stage - I mean, literally on the stage and off the stage, around the convention about women, about minorities, about Muslims, about immigrants.

Intellectually, I loved my job, but I didn't get any meaning from it.
