You're going to get a lot of advice coming from many different quarters to do things that don't feel right to you, that don't reflect who you are and what your values are. So you have to be grounded in who you are and what you believe.
With respect to my own husband, I am probably still going to pick the flowers and the china for state dinners and stuff like that. But I will certainly turn to him as prior presidents have for special missions, for advice.
I would say that when you have a big dream or you're trying to solve a big problem, there will always be people who tell you that you can't. Here's my advice: don't listen.
The government has no business in the decisions that women make with their families in accordance with their faith, with medical advice. And I will stand up for that right.

Putin is playing the long game. He has a strategic plan in mind: the Eurasian Union, which would be in competition to Europe.
Don't let anybody tell you it's corporations and businesses create jobs. You know that old theory, 'trickle-down economics.' That has been tried, that has failed. It has failed rather spectacularly.
When you're down on yourself, and when you are hunkering down and pulling back, you're not going to make any better decisions than when you were aggressively, belligerently putting yourself forward.
We have to knock down the barriers erected by greed, special interests, powerful forces.
I was not going to attack Palin just for being a woman appealing for support from other women.
