My philosophy in life... is to prove myself to myself and not to others. I tried to teach my children that, that I have to respect myself, to prove to myself that I can do the best I can.

I am not interested in politics at all. At home, around the dinner table, we never discuss politics.

My children were born into this. They will always be the grandchildren of the President and First Lady of the United States.

My father-in-law is so sensitive. Sometimes I think he displays too much love for my children.

My daughter, unfortunately, is ill, because drug addiction is an illness. She's been fighting it for years.

I never imagined my life would be the way that it has been for the past 30 years. I have had the best experiences a person can have-and the worst as well.

I've seen firsthand the terrible consequences of drug abuse. My heart is with all who suffer from addiction and the terrible consequences for their families.
