"Hey, doctors, thank you all so much. As a practicing physician sometimes still, I am so aware of your good work."

"I think we should double your budget, because I understand the impact that would have upon my patients."

"I do think we should not take our foot off the accelerator at a time when HIV/AIDS is poised I think for some major advances."

"Can we move money out of that area into neurodegenerative diseases, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, ALS?"
