Certainly Nancy Reagan had an extraordinary effect on her husband. I'm truly not sure that, say, Laura Bush had that much effect on the Bush administration.

England is very, very important to me, because in my family the English could do no wrong.

It never happened, but I've made a lot of work called The English Can Do No Wrong.
