She's still out there. There are rats roaming around, and I wonder if no one knows who this woman is and where her family is.
I can't imagine going back. I'm going to have to at some point, but I don't know what I'm going to do, I don't know.
I don't feel I'm very present in each moment. I feel like every moment I'm either thinking about something that's coming down the road or something that's been in the past.
Congo is one of the least-developed countries in the world, and has millions of acres of virtually untouched forest.
I'm always uncomfortable with that notion of setting people up in order to kind of promote, you know, some sort of a face-off.
Socialism isn't just a list of economic prescriptions for government. Perhaps above all, socialism is a moral view.
I believe in a society where all people do well. Not just a handful of billionaires.
I've never had a 12-year-old try to explain to me about groove.

If I'm hip, we've got a problem in this country. I really shouldn't be held up as any model of hipness. If anything, I think I'm sort of old school in my approach to objective reporting and not wearing my opinion on my sleeve. There's a lot of that in American TV news these days. Too much, in fact.
I've always giggled like a 13-year-old girl at a Justin Bieber meet and greet. There's nothing I can do about it but I've never not been able to stop.
I think the notion of traditional anchor is fading away - the all-knowing, all-seeing person who speaks from on high. I don't think the audience really buys that anymore. As a viewer, I know I don't buy it.
