Jackie Kennedy

You have only one chance to raise your child.

There are many little ways to enlarge your child's world. Love of books is the best of all.

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?

I don't think there are any men who are faithful to their wives.

I want to live my life, not record it.

One must not let oneself be overwhelmed by sadness.

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

I don't understand it. Jack will spend any amount of money to buy votes but he balks at investing a thousand dollars in a beautiful painting.

You are about to have your first experience with a Greek lunch. I will kill you if you pretend to like it.

I think the best thing I can do is to be a distraction. A husband lives and breathes his work all day long. If he comes home to more table thumping, how can the poor man ever relax?

There are two kinds of women, those who want power in the world and those who want power in bed.

The children have been a wonderful gift to me, and I'm thankful to have once again seen our world through their eyes. They restore my faith in the family's future.

What is sad for women of my generation is that they weren't supposed to work if they had families. What were they going to do when the children are grown - watch the raindrops coming down the window pane?

If you bungle raising your children, I don't think whatever else you do matters very much.

The first time you marry for love, the second for money, and the third for companionship.
