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.
Fear drives you and makes you better.
The dog doesn't know the difference between Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, so I have to walk the dog early those days too.
In fairy tales, the children are saved by caring adults. We need more caring adults in the lives of our children.
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.
I have long ties to the women's community.
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.
We are living longer, and we need to live better.
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.
We know the parental support, community support, makes a difference. It's not just the metrics of testing and putting pressure on the schools and on the teachers.
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 have not yet concluded that needle-exchange programs do not encourage drug use.
We can't afford as a nation - not because of money but because of our social fabric - to have large numbers of people who are not working.
I'll be one of the spokespeople, one of the people who sells the Administration's plans.
I'm pretty disciplined and am almost always on schedule.
I think President Bush tried to step up on Social Security even though the polls showed that was unpopular. He has not been successful and backed off, but I admire people who take on big problems.
I think anyone that thought that we were coming in as a bunch of liberal Democrats to deliver more large-scale social programs was nuts. I sure didn't expect it.
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.
