I always wanted to be some kind of writer or newspaper reporter. But after college... I did other things.

Whenever I was upset by something in the papers, [Jack] always told me to be more tolerant, like a horse flicking away flies in the summer.

The greatest responsibility is your children. If my children turned out badly, I'd feel that nothing I had done was worthwhile.

In the event you bungle elevating your sons or daughters, I do not imagine regardless of what else you are doing nicely issues very considerably.

I want to live my life, not record it.
