Barbara Boxer said "13 dedicated people are leaving the U.S. Senate this year. Each of them will leave a mark on this institution. Each has contributed to its accomplishments. Each has been an able and honorable representative of his or her State. I count them all as friends, and I hope that the friendship I have shared with them will continue after they leave public life. I wish them all godspeed, good health, and long happy lives after the Senate." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
