Al Franken
Well, I think that there's a value to comedy in and of itself.
Al Franken
Russia has a strategy of creating the conditions that give rise to corruption, then exploiting that corruption to its own benefit.
Al Franken

Al Franken
Service dogs raise their masters' sense of well-being.
Al Franken
I am a Minnesotan, and not just because I root for the Vikings and the Twins. I like the Minnesota-nice sensibility. I like the liberal tradition I like the Hubert Humphrey tradition fighting for civil rights.

I once asked the most fabulous couple I know, Madonna and Guy Ritchie, how they kept things fresh despite having been married for almost seven months. 'It's a job, Al,' Guy told me. 'We work at it every day.'
