More quotes by Laura Bush
Maybe it is the media that has us divided.
Laura Bush
Politics is a people business. I like people.
Laura Bush
I think doctors have really come up to speed and understand that more women than men die of heart disease. [But] all the research on heart disease has really been based on men, and needs to be updated with research on women - even very early-stage research is done using male rats!
Laura Bush

Laura Bush
As long as we have books, we are not alone.
Laura Bush

Education is spreading hope. Millions are now learning to live with HIV/AIDS - instead of waiting to die from it.
Laura Bush
Education is the key. With a really good education, you have a much broader view of the world. Well-educated people can seek help for themselves. They can help others.
Laura Bush
An educated child is better equipped to handle all the challenges of life, from finding work to avoiding diseases like HIV/AIDS.
Laura Bush
We know how unhealthy it is. I know what happens, though - young women start smoking because they don't think they're really going to keep smoking.
Laura Bush
I'm not the one who was elected. Although she disagreed with her husband on a lot of issues, she emphasized, I would never do anything to undermine my husband's point of view.
Laura Bush
A good book is like an unreachable itch. You just can't leave it alone.
Laura Bush
Because women don't expect to have heart disease, a lot of times they don't seek help if they have the early symptoms of a heart attack.
Laura Bush
When you read with your child, you show them that reading is important, but you also show them they're important - that they are so important to you that you will spend 20 minutes a day with your arm around them.
