It was not just inappropriate behavior
Every person who has gone to war has struggled with the question of, 'did he do it right?' and I have struggled with that question privately since February of 1969,
It was not a secret to our commanding officer about what happened that night,
It's very important for Americans to put the size of this threat in perspective, ... Just as it is a terrible mistake to underestimate a threat, and I think we underestimated a threat of espionage by the Chinese all the way through the 1980s and the 1990s, it is also a big risk for us to overestimate the threat. This is not the worst case of espionage in the 20th century.
It is likely that the biggest contributor is popular culture. A show like 'Project Runway' brands Parsons all the time, and that has had an impact on the number of people who want to become fashion designers. It's been largely good for the school.
I would not say 'impossible,' ... But, boy, it feels awfully close to it.
I love Gerhard, ... We've talked to one another over the past 32 years. He's never expressed anything of the kind to me over that period of time.
For the first 10 years (afterward), I just tried to figure out how to get healthy again.
I just don't know. It feels like a rematch going on right now. This thing may go all the way to 2004.

You're asking too much of me right now. ... I'm just trying to get a private memory, public.
I think the Congress should begin to examine what they need to subpoena. They clearly need to get to the bottom of this.
I still don't believe that Congress and the Bush administration are giving enough to thwart a terror attack here or to train first responders in (the New York) region.
A lot of students that come out of this program may not go to work for Electronic Arts. They may go to Wall Street. Because to me, there is no significant difference - except for clothing preference - between people who are making games and people who are manipulating huge database systems to try to figure out where the markets are headed. It's largely the same skill set, the critical thinking. Games are becoming a major part of our lives, and there is actually good news in that.
