I'd had my daughter when I was a teenager - I took my daughter to college with me.

I have an education degree from the University of Minnesota, and I was a teacher for about a minute.

My grandmother was a teacher, my sister was a teacher, my daughter was a teacher and is now a superintendent in northern California, and my son-in-law is a high school principal. I am surrounded.

The two world wars boosted American power and devastated potential rivals to an extent that could not have lasted more than a few decades.

Unity cannot be taken for granted.

And I stop listening to me, because to put it bluntly, I tire me.

I had said that when the first Bush got elected that I would leave the country. And when the second Bush wasn't even elected properly.

I like to have memories of a place. It brings something extra. I'm not even sure what it is. I mean, it's the same part of it as I like using friends in small parts or people I know or my doorman.

My doctor told me that I'm old, fat, and ugly, but none of those things is going to kill me immediately.

Beat your opponent where he is strongest, and you demoralize him.
