There is nothing about resilience that I can say that my father did not first utter silently in eighteen years of living inside a two-dimensional cutout of himself.

It takes a lot of work to put together a marriage, to put together a family and a home.

I've often said that the most important thing you can give your children is wings. Because, you're not gonna always be able to bring food to the nest. You're... sometimes... they're gonna have to be able to fly by themselves.

If people think that you're throwing babies out, dissecting children, to do stem-cell research, I'm not for that.

... all things are possible if you are willing to put yourself on the line. You cannot stand back and hope for the best. You have to act.

My heart goes out to the grieving parents who lost their two-year-old or their newborn.

Leave me if you must, but be faithful to me if you are with me.
