I love Russian culture. I don't know the young Russia, I'm not at all familiar with young Russia, but the old school Russia is good enough for me for the moment.

Mrs. Obama has a hug - a sincere and friendly embrace - that has become familiar to countless supporters from coast to coast. And when she talks to you, she focuses all her calm attention on your face.

I always feel comfortable, basically in any situation except perhaps airports.

The late Estee Lauder says you can never wear white shoes after Labor Day. But of course, in today's world, that does not exist.

I only watch MSNBC for the news.
