I just think women should support women.

There's no question that I have always wanted to be mayor. I know I am strategically not supposed to be saying that, but I don't care.

It's hard for me to write about anything personal because I get way too personal.

I would suggest that people do need to trust someone, to think they care about you. I believe that in my heart.

We need to consider that only a small amount of the public vote for the mayor of a city. It's because they are disgusted and don't trust the government.

The last thing I would ever do though is actively work against another woman.

My success has been based on the issues. It's easy to fight for mental health or needle exchange or small businesses or whatever, because the machine can't interfere.

I cannot sell my soul in order to participate with Nancy Pelosi or Carole Migden or any of them. I can't do it.

I am a visible person. I'm visible and I'm controversial. I don't mind if you crave the limelight - but make it work for you!

When I think about political races, and certain consultants, the word that comes to mind is dirty. Dirty, dirty, DIRTY!

I really, really, loved being an elected official. But I also love what I'm doing now. I thrive when I can fight for people and I'm doing it now as a lawyer.

You know that old phrase ‘Those who don’t remember the past are condemned to repeat it’? Well, I think those who remember the past are even worse off.

I think my underwear is curling off me like burning paper.

I think I'm the last Democrat left in the Senate after Russ Feingold was defeated that won't take earmarks.

No character is ultimately tested until it has suffered.

Most successful investors, in fact, do nothing most of the time.

It's easier and more cost effective to maintain good health, than to regain it once it's lost.

Every since high school I've been drawn to magazines.

You read stuff about yourself and you think, My God, where are these people coming up with these things? Why am I the one that they're picking on?

To tell you the truth, I never thought of myself as much of a success.

Every girl should have this-the little black book for career success!
