Caroline Kennedy
Poetry is really a way of sharing feelings and ideas.
Caroline Kennedy

Growing up in politics I know that women decide all elections because we do all the work.
Caroline Kennedy
The amazing thing about the winners is that none of them really felt that they were doing anything special. They just felt like it was the right thing to do.
Caroline Kennedy
The most beautiful people are all in the library.
Caroline Kennedy
The biggest problem is people are afraid of poetry, think they can't understand it or that it will be boring.
Caroline Kennedy
In those rare moments, when such a person comes along, we need to put aside our plans and reach for what we know is possible.
Caroline Kennedy
I've raised three kids. I'm a lawyer. I've written books on the Constitution.
Caroline Kennedy
I can see both sides of term limits, and I think, in different positions, term limits make more sense than in some others.
