I guess because the shows were activist in their own way - the marriage of my public activism and my career activism you know - people understand me very well. They also understand there's a very strong bipartisan part in all of this.

You know for many elected officials they all started in the same place. You know marriage is between a man and a woman but they understand that they are moving inevitably catching up to the American public.

Isn't that the ultimate homeland security standing up and defending marriage?

I am hoping this is my year to have children. I understand that I am possibly more European in my views of marriage. I am not going to say I'm not going to get married but it's not my priority.

For the life of me I don't understand what honest motive there is in putting this in front of this body to philosophically debate marriage on a constitutional amendment that is not going to happen and which is enormously divisive in all of our communities.

If Republicans want to be seen as more compassionate they should continue to stand proudly for the sanctify of life and marriage. And they should do so without apologizing.

There's already a marriage clock a career clock a biological clock. Sometimes being a woman feels like standing in the lobby of a hotel looking at the dials depicting every time zone in the world behind the front desk - except they all apply to you and all at once.

The submission of her body without love or desire is degrading to the woman's finer sensibility all the marriage certificates on earth to the contrary notwithstanding.

Sobering up was responsible for breaking up my marriage. That's what it couldn't stand.

I don't understand what the big deal is with gay marriage. Get over it people.

The human brain starts working the moment you are born and never stops until you stand up to speak in public.

It's tangible it's solid it's beautiful. It's artistic from my standpoint and I just love real estate.

There is only one secure foundation: a genuine deep relationship with Jesus Christ which will carry you through any and all turmoil. No matter what storms are raging all around you'll stand firm if you stand on His love.

Animals are reliable many full of love true in their affections predictable in their actions grateful and loyal. Difficult standards for people to live up to.

The wise are wise only because they love. The fool are fools only because they think they can understand love.

All everything that I understand I understand only because I love.

At the center of non-violence stands the principle of love.
