I tried to talk to the graduates who haven't figured what they're going to do next. The kids who are heading in medical school or law school, they've got pretty much figured where they're headed in life. But there are so many kids out there, that are just going, they're still kids. They've always been promoted from grade to grade.

Just come in there and stand before a live crowd, thousands of people at an Ivy League School, like Eleanor Roosevelt said, always do what you're afraid to do.

[John F.Kennedy] liked fresh company, new people to come visit and then leave. ... I think he liked the protection of numbers too.

I`m closer to anybody who believes that we should lead not from behind, but from the front. Rand Paul is one step behind, leading from behind. So, yes, even [Barack] Obama is more aggressive. Obama believes you can kill Anwar al-Awlaki without getting a court order.

The real difference between relationship politics and transactional politics is loyalty. [Barack] Obama doesn't seem to expect it.

Pope John Paul II is the great. Only two other popes had that title. Does that suggest there is going to be a move for canonization?

I love what Joe Eszterhas written about Bill Clinton. It's hilarious, Clinton as a rock star, which is the way we should remember him.
