Have I been blind, have I been lost, inside myself and my own mind?

There is one tradition in America I am proud to inherit. It is our first freedom and the truest expression of our Americanism: the ability to dissent without fear. It is our right to utter the words, 'I disagree.' We must feel at liberty to speak those words to our neighbors, our clergy, our educators, our news media, our lawmakers and, above all, to the one among us we elect - President.

I think I don't invest so much time in thinking about people's sexuality. I just take people as individuals.

I don't think women's prisons are environments for dance routines, and I don't think mass murder is humorous.

I wish I had appreciated my youth - I should have worn tighter clothing when I could have!

For your kindness, I'm in debt to you. For your selflessness, my admiration.

I don't have a lot of thrilling anecdotes about my career or personal life. All the stuff that is interesting is private and I wouldn't want people to know.
