Madeleine Albright
Nobody's ever said that pins are a tool of diplomacy.
Madeleine Albright
I can't go out with a Republican.
Madeleine Albright
My deepest regret from my years in public service is the failure of the United States and the international community to act sooner to halt these crimes.
Madeleine Albright

Madeleine Albright
