Jackie Kennedy
The children have been a wonderful gift to me, and I'm thankful to have once again seen our world through their eyes. They restore my faith in the family's future.
Jackie Kennedy

Jackie Kennedy
An Editor becomes kind of your mother. You expect love and encouragement from an Editor.
Jackie Kennedy

Jackie Kennedy

Jackie Kennedy
You have to be doing something you enjoy. That is a definition of happiness!
Jackie Kennedy
The only routine with me is no routine at all.
Jackie Kennedy

Jackie Kennedy
You are about to have your first experience with a Greek lunch. I will kill you if you pretend to like it.
Jackie Kennedy
[On Hillary Rodham Clinton:] She always looks so adorable, and she's intrepid she's the biggest bargain America ever got, bigger than that Louisiana Purchase from my French friends.
Jackie Kennedy
You have to be doing something you enjoy. That is a definition of happiness: Complete use of one's faculties along lines leading to excellence in a life affording them scope. It applies to women as well as to men. We can't all reach it, but we can try to reach it to some degree.
Jackie Kennedy
I want to live my life, not record it.
Jackie Kennedy
I think my biggest achievement is that, after going through a rather difficult time, I consider myself comparatively sane.
Jackie Kennedy
When Harvard men say they have graduated from Radcliffe, then we've made it.
Jackie Kennedy
