Molly Ivins Zitate

Im Kongress gibt es einige, die nicht beschämt sind, um Eloquenz zu streben, sogar um Stipendium, aber der einzige staatliche Gesetzgeber, den ich jemals kannte, der sich nicht mit der Falschaussage eines Wortes für die Kameradschaft mit seinen Kameraden befassen würde, war die ehemalige Staatssenatorin und Kongressabgeordnete Barbara Jordan

I knew the full 'Judy Garland Carnegie Hall' double album set at age 2. And then my mother wondered why I was gay. I was like, 'Are you nuts? You would make me get on the table to sing Judy Garland songs and you're upset?'
