I think all politicians lie.

After I lost my fiance, it seemed like it would be better to always be alone than to risk being hurt again.

I always thought that was one of the single most important things a prosecutor could do is to seek justice for the families of victims.

I have 'To Kill A Mockingbird' signed by Harper Lee. That is my prized possession.

I think the truth is black-and-white .

I don't expect everybody to like me. If you try to please everybody, by changing your position and your personality, every time you do that you lose a little bit of yourself.

I was in the courtroom prosecuting violent felonies for well over a decade.

I don't like juries having the wool pulled over their eyes. I don't think that's what the Constitution is about.

Well, of course I think people can be forgiven. But our justice system is not set up to dispense forgiveness. You can go to the local priest for that.

I'm all about the crockpot.

I wouldn't call it "police reform," but I would say that police procedure enhancement could be helpful - these police shootings are absolutely horrible.

No more, no less. I'm an idiot. I really need to let this crush go.

Don't ever underestimate the value and power of doing nothing sometime.

I want to know exactly how many pieces of myself I had to give away before I became something else entirely.

Can you imagine a waveless ocean while there is a big storm outside? And that calm ocean is the ocean of wisdom!

Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with big dreams is more powerful than the one with all the facts.

Put on some lipstick and pull yourself together.

Look round, the wrecks of play behold; Estates dismember'd, mortgaged, sold! Their owners now to jails confin'd, Show equal poverty of mind.

When you fall down, just get up again.

Listen to the unstruck sounds, and what sifts through that music.

Nature is not a drag on growth - its protection is an unavoidable prerequisite for sustaining economic development.
