I don't care what the press is about a person that I'm working with. I care about how they come to work every day. I don't care who broke up with who or who is sleeping with who or who went out where. I don't care what you do with your personal life. It's when people take their personal lives into a space where it affects their performance at work, that's when I would stop taking someone seriously.

The problem in my life and other people's lives is not the absence of knowing what to do but the absence of doing it.
I see no conflict between saving people's lives and defending the Second Amendment.
The purpose of our lives is to find the purpose of our lives.
There is a peace That fruitfully lives for me Infinitely more Than I can live for myself.
Wit lives in the present, but genius survives the future.
My purpose. . . to go on with my heart and soul, devoting all my energies to Girl Scouts, and heart and hand with them, we will make our lives and the lives of the future girls happy, healthy and holy.
