I don't live my life thinking about "if only." I just try to think positively about the future. We'll never know for certain what would have happened if we'd gone to Iraq. The important thing is that we've got to do everything we can to prevent other wars.

Just watching Israel bombarding Palestine and Palestine sending one or two little rockets over to Israel - it's just too sad for words.

If you want to stand out from the crowd, give people a reason not to forget you

It's so graceful to be blown by the wind, to go where the wind takes you. Just drifting over beautiful rivers in a balloon is perfect.

Listen more than you talk. Nobody learned anything by hearing themselves speak.

Brave people don't live forever, but cautious people don't live at all.

I am a believer in trying to treat people properly and trying to respond and making sure that I find the time to be courteous.
