“Americans, as a rule, rarely compare themselves with other countries, so convinced are we that our system is superior, that our politicians are better, that our democracy is the fairest and most robust in the world.”

“As a newcomer, you know, you don't come out the gate as a singer and try to compare with Judy Garland.”

“I don't really compare myself to anybody. That would be very unhealthy.”
