A sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost.

I have a son, who is my heart. A wonderful young man, daring and loving and strong and kind.

How pleasant it is for a father to sit at his child’s board. It is like an aged man reclining under the shadow of an oak which he has planted.

My mom and my dad were both very sociable, meeting lots of interesting people.

I don’t fear death. I remember my last meeting with my father when he told me, You know, tonight when I will be killed, my mother and my father will be waiting for me. It makes me weepy … but I don’t think it can happen unless God wants it to happen because so many people have tried to kill me.

My mom was a terrible parent of young children. And thank God – I thank God every time I think of it – I was sent to my paternal grandmother. Ah, but my mother was a great parent of a young adult.

I have led an unusual life. I have buried a father killed at age 50 and two brothers killed in the prime of their lives. I raised my children as a single mother when my husband was arrested and held for eight years without a conviction – a hostage to my political career.

Grammys, American Music Awards, successful albums, I’d pick my kids any day over any of it.
