"There will be an announcement if that does take place, and you will know in plenty of time so that no one will scoop you."

"That was a confidential conversation between the Ambassador and myself, and I have no comment to make."

"The responsibility of government-this Government--in the next few years is going to be on your shoulders."

"Most of the time it is a lot of fun to do it, but it means a tremendous amount of hard work."
