Sometimes the little times you don't think are anything while they're happening turn out to be what marks a whole period of your life.
jobs mean people
I've always thought that the President could do so much here to help change images. If the President would go into a public bathroom in the Capitol, and have the TV cameras film him cleaning the toilets and saying 'Why not? Somebody's got to do it!' then that would do so much for the morale of the people who do the wonderful job of keeping the toilets clean. I mean, it is a wonderful thing that they're doing.

Fashion wasn't what you wore someplace anymore; it was the whole reason for going.

The wide multitude wanted to seem contrarian. It meant that this type of nonconformism had to be mass-produced.

The idea of America is so wonderful because the more equal something is, the more American it is
