You can't have a university without having free speech, even though at times it makes us terribly uncomfortable. If students are not going to hear controversial ideas on college campuses, they're not going to hear them in America. I believe it's part of their education.
Our young people are out on the streets looking for parties, a place to dance, looking for a scene. No institutions are providing them with alternatives, fun things to do that don't necessarily have alcohol at the center.
I am interested in getting people to use the healthcare system at the right time, getting them to see the doctor early enough, before a small health problem turns serious.
The dog doesn't know the difference between Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, so I have to walk the dog early those days too.
Fear drives you and makes you better.
Asking the government to help you for short periods of time is different than asking the government to take care of you for the rest of your life.
In fairy tales, the children are saved by caring adults. We need more caring adults in the lives of our children.
I have long ties to the women's community.
The government is fully capable of delivering services. Even complex services.
We have to mainstream everybody. No matter what their circumstances when they were growing up. Part of that is knowing that after they're finished with school, everybody in this country gets up and goes to work.
I try to deal with my serious reading before work.
Sex education has to do with what's in people's head.
I've spent my whole life with people underestimating me.
In every community, whether large or small, there are people who lead in their community in easy and difficult times.
We are living longer, and we need to live better.
Sometimes I'll trust my gut more than my head. Logical information might lead me in one direction and my feelings in another. Whereas I would have followed my head ten years ago, now I'm as likely or more likely to go with my gut feeling. It's ironic - you'd think the opposite would be true as you move to the top but it's not.
I'm pretty disciplined and am almost always on schedule.
Sure, it is apparent that presidents are looking at polls, but they are also stepping up on issues. President Clinton stepped up on tobacco. He shaped the polls on the tobacco issue.
I'll be one of the spokespeople, one of the people who sells the Administration's plans.
Every year, I am reminded of the kids who aren't in the freshman class and aren't graduating. I remember every single one of them. That is the worst of times for me, to see the future snuffed out.
What you really remember at the beginning was that you have to throw a budget together. We made some terrible mistakes at the beginning in my own budget that took us at least a year to catch up on.
You don't want to destroy the energy that comes out of a campaign.
We need to drive down requirements for the schools. In the 19th century, we increased the quality of the schools by higher education saying, 'You can't come in unless you have these skills, unless you've taken these courses.' We did that in Wisconsin when I was there, it helped to transform the secondary school system.
I compensate for big risks by always doing my homework and being well-prepared. I can take on larger risks by reducing the overall risk.
I would argue that we have a generation of young people, particularly minorities, who are no longer putting up with the kinds of things their parents put up with. They're much more self-confident. It's no longer acceptable to make fun of people because of race or sex. But it has always been present in American society.
