It was my sister Maureen who was responsible for my becoming a Reagan.

I constantly looked for motherly protection.

I knew if I waited long enough, the Republican Party would rock.

You know my father as governor, as president, but I knew him as dad. I was so proud to have the Reagan name and to be Ronald Reagan's son.

I think he would have been proud and smiling... when we laid him to rest because his family was together. I think that was a great gift to be able to give Dad at the end.

It's hard to learn about your parents' courtship.

Senator Arlen Specter hasn't really switched parties; he's simply realized he cannot win the Pennsylvania Republican primary election.

Because of my father, we are that Shining City on a Hill.

The odds against an adoptee ending up as the child of the President of the United States are staggering. But then, so are the odds against a movie star becoming president.

My adoption was treated as a celebration.

You just watch somebody you love slowly, slowly disappear and go away.

Dad sometimes patted me on the knee and called me his Little Schmuck.

With the blessings of liberty, we have responsibilities to defend it.

I thought the Secret Service would protect me from the press, but they were at my house to protect me from assassins with guns, not with assassins with pencils.

Nancy is superstitious.

It was my sister Maureen who was responsible for my becoming a Reagan.

Everyone seemed to want a piece of Ronald Reagan. It was maddening.

Dad was the only adult male I ever trusted.

Being sent away to school was no different from my biological mother giving me away.

I can fake anything.

I didn't feel I belonged in so perfect a family.

I didn't know if I was heterosexual or homosexual.

I had never said, 'dad, I love you.'

I mean, people need to remember without the grassroots, Ronald Reagan probably doesn't become president of the United States of America and he worked the grassroots on a regular basis during his political career and especially between the years of 1976 and 1980 after the loss in Kansas City.

I started to build barriers between myself and others to protect myself.

I was so proud to have the Reagan name and to be Ronald Reagan's son. What a great honor.

I've been living a lie all my life.

My sister and I were born in San Francisco. When our parents died, we came down here to live with relatives.

My grandmother was a teacher, my sister was a teacher, my daughter was a teacher and is now a superintendent in northern California, and my son-in-law is a high school principal. I am surrounded.

A sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost.

For there is no friend like a sister in calm or stormy weather; To cheer one on the tedious way, to fetch one if one goes astray, to lift one if one totters down, to strengthen whilst one stands.

My sister said, You're making it hard for all us housewives in Nebraska.

If your sister is in a tearing hurry to go out and cannot catch your eye, she's wearing your best sweater.

My sister and I are opposites in many ways. She is six feet tall, while I'm five feet four.

The typewriting machine, when played with expression, is no more annoying than the piano when played by a sister or near relation.

I love being a mother. I loved being a daughter, a sister, a wife. I love being a woman with men. I love having given birth.

She is the mother I never had, she is the sister everybody would want. She is the friend that everybody deserves. I don't know a better person.

My brother and sister are both older than I am and were born before my father went off to World War I.

Peter Lucas and I live in Durham but spend a great of time in North Wales, where we have a cottage in the mountains, and in Vermont, USA, with my sister - who is a children's writer married to a poet.

My sister is a nurse and saves people's lives.

Well, rather than to give you my impression on Los Angeles, per se, my older sister's husband is and American, therefore I have a pretty good idea of the, perhaps the characteristics of Americans in general.

I, Lawrence Klein, was born in Omaha, Nebraska, as were my elder brother and younger sister.

The Pleasure Seekers eventually turned into Cradle, when we started writing our own material. My younger sister Nancy was brought in as singer and I kind of stepped aside as main lead singer and concentrated on my instrument.

My sister and I are both diagnosed with second-hand smoke syndromes. We have never smoked, but we grew up with second-hand smoke our entire lives.

Besides, I have a sister who's straight. And I want her to know that I love her and support her.

Badges mean nothing in themselves, but they mark a certain achievement and they are a link between the rich and the poor. For when one girl sees a badge on a sister Scout's arm, if that girl has won the same badge, it at once awakens an interest and sympathy between them.

When I was very young I was the ugly duckling. I had a lot of complexes. My sister was wonderful and I was nothing.

I may have had a crush on Zac, but we are like brother and sister, so nothing would ever happen.

My sister and I said, Dad, are you doing to do anything about that? And he mentioned treatments other people sent him that he'd been working on. So we thought it would be kind of cool to give these guys a real script.
