I've told so many stories to so many friends of mine. I have friends in Pittsburgh, in West Virginia, and in Indy.

— Oscar Hammerstein II

— Pat Robertson

— Pamela Druckerman
There is only one thing that gives me hope as a Republican, and that is the Democrats. It's going to be hard to do a worse job running American than the Republicans have, but if anybody can do it, it's the Democrats.
I tried to use words that were dealing with the emotional quality that any human being could recognize in the way that they felt about their country. It's to do with the world we live in. That world is a brutal one and full of war. It's also full of many wonderful things and love and hope.
