I mean the fight for a health care bill to cover all Americans and leave none behind is attacked as being a race appeal which is not true but then it's put out in the media as true.

It's easier to lecture women on sexual morality than it is to explain why all Americans shouldn't have comprehensive fair and equal health care coverage.

Effective health care depends on self-care this fact is currently heralded as if it were a discovery.

We must solve the problem in health care by curbing out-of-control costs that erode paychecks for working families and push quality coverage out of reach for millions of Americans.

I had my moments when I got very frightened that I would not recover.

There is no such thing as the pursuit of happiness but there is the discovery of joy.

Happiness I do not know where to turn to discover you on earth in the air or the sky yet I know you exist and are no futile dream.

The discovery of a new dish confers more happiness on humanity than the discovery of a new star.

And of all illumination which human reason can give none is comparable to the discovery of what we are our nature our obligations what happiness we are capable of and what are the means of attaining it.

I have discovered the secret of happiness - it is work either with the hands or the head. The moment I have something to do the draughts are open and my chimney draws and I am happy.
