More quotes by Elizabeth Edwards
Whenever anyone pulls out of the race, you know, unless they've just been trounced in the days before, there's also - always a lot of questions about why that happened.
Elizabeth Edwards
At the end of our lives, we will not be judged by the highest public office we attained in our lifetime, if that were true the current president (George W. Bush) would hold as much esteem as Franklin Roosevelt in our country, and Nelson Mandela in his. That cannot be the case. Rather, we will each be judged by the mark we've left on others.

I have three living children for whom this is a father who I want them to love and on whom they're going to have to rely if my disease takes a bad turn.
Elizabeth Edwards
If I had lost a leg, I would tell them, instead of a boy, no one would ever ask me if I was 'over it'. They would ask me how I was doing learning to walk without my leg. I was learning to walk and to breathe and to live without Wade. And what I was learning is that it was never going to be the life I had before.
Elizabeth Edwards
I love children, love spending time with them I love getting things for them.
Elizabeth Edwards
It's more likely in America that your parents will file for bankruptcy than divorce. We think of divorce as so prevalent, but we all know that happens because somebody moves out of the house.
Elizabeth Edwards
You know, everybody knows some of what politicians say is malarkey, and having somebody there to call them on it is good. I'd be happy to do that any time and any place.
Elizabeth Edwards
The military is already sexually integrated.
Elizabeth Edwards
I'm part of a community that holds each other up, and it's been great to be held up too.
