Georgette Heyer

Sitting in this chair, my recommendation would carry too much weight.
Michael Ritchie

Selena Gomez

We've been sitting at the compromise table for a long time. We're just waiting for that cold chair to be warmed up by the Republican leadership. They still have time to do the right thing and be responsible. They just seem to be moving further and further away from it.
