We must guard against the overreaching hand of big government trying to take away our freedom. And we must always protect the environment in a manner consistent with our values. – Steve Forbes
I love Mikhail Bulgakov. He is very original and takes the story to unexpected places. I didnt realise political writing could be so funny. – Denise Mina
