I spent a lot of time in the White House in the public areas where reporters are allowed to go, but I spoke to people about the private quarters as well.

I used to work with mentally disabled people when I was 18 or 19, changing diapers and catheters.

The light struck upon the trees in the garden, making one leaf transparent and then another. One bird chirped high up; there was a pause; another chirped lower down. The sun sharpended the walls of the house, and rested like the tip of a fan upon a white blind and made a fingerprint of a shadow under the leaf by the bedroom window. The blind stirred slightly, but all within was dim and unsubstantial. The birds sang their blank melody outside.
