Pat Nixon

I've been blessed with a wonderful husband, two caring daughters and sons-in-law, and four really special grandchildren. They have each enhanced my life.

I never have tantrums. If anything makes me mad, I'm silent. If I'm not talking, leave me alone.

I'd like to work on job and educational opportunities for all.

It's good to like yourself, and that only comes from hard work, from doing. But vanity is dangerous; it can trip you badly.

I know they call me a crazy lady, but I'm only interested in making movies and having people see them.

I studied international relations and economics at the University of Virginia. I paid my way by working as a bartender in the summer and at three part-time jobs during the year.
