| 1 | "The power of the office of Congressman is very alluring. It (marriage to John Jenrette) was like being married to a rock star. Women saw me with him and still approached him and handed them the keys to their hotel rooms and their addresses and phone numbers. I was a young model for Clarol. That didn't deter women as old as my mother from pursuing him." Recalling her years as a Congressional wife, 1982. |
| 2 | I made choices that were not judicious, and I have to live with that....But you have to quit feeling sorry for yourself and say 'I will not let this be my epitaph.'...My past sometimes comes up at inopportune times. But I've made it a footnote. Interview with People Magazine, Sep. 30, 2002 |
