“If you want to come fight the good fight to make a difference for people and to try to get the government back on track, where we govern from the middle and not from the extremes, then understand that it's a lonely road, and you're going to have a hard time.”

“It takes a certain personality to thrive as a member of the House.”

“I learned long ago you run unopposed, or you run scared.”

“Although in my life the level of loss has never reached the extremes it does in 'The Winter People,' I certainly can identify with being both a daughter longing for her mother and being a mother who is almost scared by the intensity of her love for her daughter.”

“I fell in love at 14 and I remember that mad, tense feeling and all the mad things you do for the person - all those extremes and all the stuff you don't mind putting up with.”

“We live in a time of extremes. People think that, on a scale of 1-10, if they're not at a 10 for happy, they're not happy.”
