Political Quotes

“we live in cynical times. We live in times when reams of newspaper are printed about our foibles, individual and collective; but there is scant recognition of the greatness of our country and its great people. Today we pay tribute to a truly great man, Liz Moynihan's husband. For more than a generation, Senator Moynihan has brought dignity to these halls, and during the push and pull of daily political discourse, there has been one voice which for more than 40 years has seen around the corner into the face of our future challenges. Mr. Speaker, this is my first term; and if I serve just this one term, or 20 more, I hope to display just one ounce, one thimbleful, of the dignity and grace and wisdom of the senior Senator from New York. Godspeed, Senator Moynihan.”
