It is a --it is different from the other 49 states. Well, all states are different, but it's got a particularly unique situation."
"If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure." "We are ready for an unforseen event that may or may not occur." "Potatoe" "It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it." "We've got to pause and ask ourselves: How much clean air do we need?" "I love California. I practically grew up in Phoenix." "The loss of life will be irreplaceable." "How could this be a problem in a country where we have Intel and Microsoft?" "What a waste it is to lose one's mind.

"It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession. I have learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first." "Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: "Politics is not a bad profession. If you succeed, there are many rewards; if you disgrace yourself, you can always write a book." "No arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is as formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women."
