Happened Quotes
I love the Capitol rotunda. It's just so big and so grand, and I love being in the Capitol at night when it's empty, and you can go stand in the Capitol rotunda and bask in the silence of history. You can sort of imagine all of the things that have happened inside that Rotunda from presidents lying in state to other important events.

Citizens Quotes

Accidental Quotes
The Governor says the accidental shooting 'raises questions' about whether firearms should be permitted in Capitol offices, and the legislator says he's going to do some 'soul searching' as to whether he should have a loaded gun in his office. There are no questions left to ask -- Delegate John Reid should be relieved of having to decide whether to have a loaded gun in his office. These offices belong to the people, and the people deserve to be kept safe from amateurs who play with pistols.

Board Quotes

Then I had a personal sit-down meeting with a tour liaison. Then I called two policy board directors. Then I went to my state senator, John McCain. Then I flew to Washington DC and spent a month all over Capitol Hill, where I got two meetings with the Senate finance committee's tax counsel.

Anyone Quotes
It would be a very big mistake to think John Spencer - no offense to John, who I guess was a decent enough mayor - to move him to a level of where anyone is going to take him seriously as a U.S. Senate candidate. Unfortunately, John Spencer wouldn't know which side of the Capitol the U.S. Senate meets.

Avenue Quotes
These resolutions are an expression of the will of the people that is simply not being heard on Capitol Hill. This is direct democracy, and it gives average Americans a microphone to say 'I am frustrated, I want my tax dollars spent in my own town, I want our children back home.' It's a unique and exciting new avenue for regular people to make their voices heard.

Albums Quotes
Dean Martin's albums for Capitol are among the most timeless vocal pop ever recorded. He was a great singer, with a unique, behind-the-beat laconic style that perfectly fit his devil-may-care personality, and made very astute choices as to material and arrangers. And perhaps best of all, he never took himself too seriously, either on record or In life! We're thrilled that he's a big part of our artist roster.

Access Quotes
They're buying face time with the lawmaker. And they're not regular Joe constituents. They're lobbyists with an agenda. It's an opportunity in a nice, picturesque setting to get this kind of intimate access that you wouldn't get if you trooped up to Capitol Hill and knocked on a congressman's door.
