When God gives you a second chance, it's not something you take for granted.
In books, as in life, there are no second chances. On second thought: it's the next work, still to be written, that offers the second chance.
I can only say that I have good personal relations with all secretaries of state with whom I have a chance to work.
It's a fact that if Hillary Clinton is elected, the country's chance to have a Supreme Court that values the Constitution - and the genuine liberty and self-government for which millions have died - is gone. Not for four years, or eight, but forever.
Beset by a difficult problem? Now is your chance to shine. Pick yourself up, get to work and get triumphantly through it.
When you see the same familiar faces, it's nice when you get a chance to play with the same musicians.
