Maureen Dowd
I think even the Hollywood money people are saying they've got to get the party back from the Clinton wing. They can't, you know, keep nominating these Northeast liberals. They have to look for people who can win.
Maureen Dowd
Good and evil are not like the Redskins and the Cowboys.
Maureen Dowd
Personally, I've decided to stop evolving.
Maureen Dowd
It takes a lot of adrenaline and fear to make me actually write.

Reagan didn't socialize with the press. He spent his evenings with Nancy, watching TV with dinner trays. But he knew that to transcend, you can't condescend.
Maureen Dowd
Celebrity distorts democracy by giving the rich, beautiful, and famous more authority than they deserve.
Maureen Dowd
When I need to work up my nerve to write a tough column, I try to think of myself as Emma Peel in a black leather catsuit.
Maureen Dowd
The minute you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less than you settled for.
Maureen Dowd
