“Ah, Governor [Murphy, of New Jersey], dont try to deceive me as to the sentiment of the dear people. I have been hearing from the West and the East, and the South seems to be the only section which approves of me at all, and that comes from merely a generous impulse, for even that section would deny me its votes.”
—William Howard Taft (18571930)
“Most of our platitudes notwithstanding, self-deception remains the most difficult deception. The tricks that work on others count for nothing in that very well-lit back alley where one keeps assignations with oneself: no winning smiles will do here, no prettily drawn lists of good intentions.”
—Joan Didion (b. 1934)
“The people who resent me do so because Im a woman, Im young, and Im a Bhutto. Well, the simple answer is, it doesnt matter that Im a woman, it doesnt matter that Im young, and its a matter of pride that Im a Bhutto.”
—Benazir Bhutto (b. 1953)
