Political Quotes

“Let me again thank the gentlewoman from West Virginia for her hard work on bringing this bill. I think there's no more appropriate thing to do than to celebrate mothers, as we will this Sunday, and celebrate the 100th anniversary of Mother's Day, as we will in 2014, as well as raising money for those causes that will help women. Let me likewise just say that I would not be standing here today in the well of the House of Representatives if it wasn't for many lessons that were taught to me by my mother. And though she is no longer with us, there is not a day that goes by that she is not in my thoughts and in my heart and I don't hear her. In closing, I must say on a personal note that I must give a special thanks to my wife and what she does on a daily basis mothering our children.”
