Jackie Kennedy

You have to have been a Republican to know how good it is to be a Democrat.

Can anyone understand how it is to have lived in the White House and then, suddenly, to be living alone as the President's widow?

The one thing I do not want to be called is First Lady. It sounds like a saddle horse.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

In early 1993, when I was 12, I was separated from my family as the Sierra Leone civil war, which began two years earlier, came into my life.

I've never said I'm a communist.
