You're young. Maybe there'll be time for a do-over if you don't get it right the first time. But there are no guarantees. There will come a time as it has for me when there's no time for a do-over.

More quotes by Elizabeth Edwards
Successful health reform must not just make health insurance affordable, affordable health insurance has to make health care affordable.
Elizabeth Edwards
I was a 16-year-old girl at one point, so of course I wrote poetry.
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
My heart goes out to the grieving parents who lost their two-year-old or their newborn.

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.

Concentrate on the things that matter to you.

The photograph contains and constrains within its own boundaries, excluding all else, a microcosmic analogue of the framing of space which is knowledge. As such it becomes a metaphor of power, having the ability to appropriate and decontextualize time and space and those who exist within it.
Elizabeth Edwards
A positive attitude is not going to save you. What it's going to do is, everyday, between now and the day you die, whether that's a short time from now or a long time from now, that every day, you're going to actually live.

Tabloid news is tabloid news.

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
Every parent has gone through a period when their child wasn't so happy with them.
Elizabeth Edwards
If you know someone who has lost a child, and you're afraid to mention them because you think you might make them sad by reminding them that they died-you're not reminding them. They didn't forget they died. What you're reminding them of is that you remembered that they lived, and that is a great gift.

If I say something that ends up on the front page of Drudge, I haven't done it right.
Elizabeth Edwards
Resilience is accepting your new reality, even if it's less good than the one you had before. You can fight it, you can do nothing but scream about what you've lost, or you can accept that and try to put together something that's good.
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.

Maybe we all change over time.

I was an English major in college, and then I went to graduate school in English at the University of North Carolina for three years.
