Helen Thomas Presidents Quotations

Presidents hate the press. They hate me most of the time.

The presidency awed me, but presidents do not. Perhaps I have always expected too much of them, but I believe that when they reach the highest office in the land, they should live up to the greatest honor that can come to a person in American political life. Some have stood the test better than others.

Great presidents take stands, and they fight off these people who really are so far to the right. I don't want to call them names, even though they would call me names.
