"I just don't want to see us, by default, allow the economic forces to define what the Postal Service will look like in the future."

"Should there be some concern that, with the best of intentions, some of the cost-cutting measures being contemplated or undertaken could prove to be counterproductive?"

"I believe that any short-term steps must be taken in the context of consideration of the long-term business model for the Postal Service."

"I may be a freshman but the light has stayed on red."
