Lawyer

I believe that Reagan's a radical on arms control.

I think the Reagan people are superb marketers. Their whole approach to polling, to television, to the symbolism and the rest approaches genius.

I will not lobby. I will not be an influence-type lawyer. I'm a professional lawyer.

When I was a young man, I used to dream maybe someday I could be an alderman. Instead of that I became an attorney general, a senator, a vice president, a Democratic nominee.

There's a lot of bad consequences that flow from segregation. The kids don't do as well. We live separately. We don't learn about each other. We're all Americans. And yet, we separate based on, basically, race. And I believe it's got to stop.

I believe in the Camp David accords.

In our system, at about 11:30 on election night, they just push you off the edge of the cliff-and that's it. You might scream on the way down, but you're going to hit the bottom, and you're not going to be in elective office.

I don't want to spend the next two years in Holiday Inns.

President Reagan likes to say Uncle Sam is a kindly old man with a spine of steel, and that he is. But I want to see Uncle Sam as well with a mind and with a heart and with a soul and a conscience.

I believe there were things I probably should have done differently. But I'm not going to spend a lot of time crying over spilt milk.

I think we need a public, strategic, cooperative relationship with Israel.

I have no doubt the Japanese leadership and most Japanese see the importance of a strong U.S.-Japan relationship. I certainly have no doubt that the American view is the same.

I will end the lawlessness that's destroying our environment. I will take polluters to court, not to lunch.

Running for President is physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually the most demanding single undertaking I can envisage unless it's World War III.

If you are sure you understand everything that is going on, you are hopelessly confused.

What do we want our kids to do? Sweep up around Japanese computers?

Pick somebody who knows what it's like to live on an average income and to deal with the problems that most Americans face. Pick somebody who's traveled this country and who will remember who put him in the White House - not to be a king but to be a public servant.

My father was a minister, and my mother was a music teacher.

The more the American people see the sharp differences between Mr. Reagan and me and the visions we have of our future, the better off the American people will be.

I said I didn't want to spend most of my life in Holidays Inns, but I've checked and they've all been redecorated. They're marvelous places to stay and I've thought it over and that's where I'd like to be.
