I Am And Always Will Be A

That's What's Wrong With The Country. There Are Too Many 'good Soldiers' Accepting Too Many Bad Decisions.

I Was The First American Citizen To Be Elected To Congress In Spite Of The Double Drawbacks Of Being Female And Having Skin Darkened By Melanin. When You Put It That Way, It Sounds Like A Foolish Reason For Fame. In A Just And Free Society It Would Be Foolish. That I Am A National Figure Because I Was The First Person In 192 Years To Be At Once A Congressman, Black And A Woman Proves, I Think, That Our Society Is Not Yet Either Just Or Free.

I Don’t Measure America By Its Achievement But By Its Potential.

As Things Are Now, No One Can Tell To Whom Members Of Congress Are Responsible, Except That It Does Not Often Appear To Be To The People. Everyone Else Is Represented In Washington By A Rich And Powerful Lobby, It Seems. But There Is No Lobby For The People.

Some Members Of Congress Are Among The Best Actors In The World.
