"In 1976 a legislator made a point of telling me women didn't belong in the legislature. I couldn't believe it."

"This year, I've had about half a dozen legislators tell me women really don't belong in the legislature, and they just can't vote for a bill with a woman's name on it."

"I think it's wrong, particularly for clergymen, to protect a child molester. This is a step backwards."

"I am liberal in that I believe we have a responsibility to care for the elderly, the poor, the handicapped and the mentally retarded. I support programs aiding these citizens. I am conservative in that when it comes to giving away taxpayers money on such things as the Heber Creeper."

"It's amazing how even with the language barrier women still communicate. You talk to women around the world and you find out we all have the same problems."
