"I don't want those of you here to assume that we are consumed by impeachment."

"I can have some sympathy for and express some compassion on allegations just simply because of what I have been through with my staff experientially."

"I know we can't hold back the wind. It is inevitable that we are going to see more and more of this in the future."

"I am one of the victims myself, as my congressional office was firebombed."
