I have always tried my best to do what I thought was the right thing at the time.
I never have tantrums. If anything makes me mad, I'm silent. If I'm not talking, leave me alone.
Being first lady is the hardest unpaid job in the world.
I love my husband. I believe in him, and I am proud of his accomplishments.
All lives have triumphs and tragedies, laughter and tears, and mine has been no different. What really matters is whether, after all of that, you remain strong and a comfort to your loved ones. I have tried to meet that test.
I've been blessed with a wonderful husband, two caring daughters and sons-in-law, and four really special grandchildren. They have each enhanced my life.
I don't have time to be depressed.
I feel there's enough seriousness in the world without seeing it in the theatre.
The truth sustains me.
I think a person has to just be herself.
I have a very positive outlook.
I'd like to work on job and educational opportunities for all.
I have sacrificed everything in my life that I consider precious to advance the political career of my husband.
I do or die, but I never cancel out.
I'm a perfectionist. I won't do a thing without trying to do it well.
I only know what I read in the papers.
I didn't know what it was not to work hard as I grew up.
It takes heart to be in political life.
I don't have time to worry about who I admire or who I identify with.
I'll have to have a room of my own. Nobody could sleep with Dick. He wakes up during the night, switches on the lights, speaks into his tape recorder.
