Bill Quotes

Rick Perry

Work, Money, Best

F. Lee Bailey

Today, Through, Rights

Dee Dee Myers

Power, Drunk, Him

You know, if you look back in the 1930s, the money went to infrastructure. The bridges, the municipal buildings, the roads, those were all built with stimulus money spent on infrastructure. This stimulus bill has fundamentally gone, started out with a $500 rebate check, remember. That went to buy flat-screen TVs made in China.
Michael Bloomberg

Money, Remember, Made

Ron Fournier

Larry Ellison

Dee Dee Myers

Time, Actually, Clinton

Dee Dee Myers

I worked for a lot of candidates, in tough campaigns that lost. Most of my candidates lost until Bill Clinton. There was always a point where you look in their eyes and they knew it was over. And there was never that point with Clinton. He never quit. He never gave up.
Dee Dee Myers

Lost, Eyes, Tough

When I became White House press secretary, there were other limitations that were thrust upon me. Bill Clinton was under pressure to appoint women to visible positions. I was 31, I'd never worked in Washington. Was I ready for this large and visible job? Still he wanted the credit. So he gave me the job but diminished the job.
Dee Dee Myers

Women, Job, Wanted

Dee Dee Myers

Good, Hard, Done

When I joined Bill Clinton's start-up presidential campaign in 1991, I was confident that women would play an ever more important role, but I never gave a minute's thought to what would happen if we won. When we did - and I became the first woman to serve as White House press secretary - it changed my life. But it didn't change the world.
Dee Dee Myers

Life, Change, Women

Politics, College, Lawyer

William Hague

Time, Freedom, Powerful

I'm still very connected to my family, to the world I grew up in. I understand what it means to be afraid that you can't pay a doctor's bill.

It was how I lived until I was well into my adult years.
Elizabeth Warren

Family, Time, Understand
