Every President hates the Press.

I love my work, and I think that I was so lucky to pick a profession where it's a joy to go to work every day.

The presidency awed me, but presidents do not. Perhaps I have always expected too much of them, but I believe that when they reach the highest office in the land, they should live up to the greatest honor that can come to a person in American political life. Some have stood the test better than others.

From Helen Thomas

I think I'll work all my life. When you're having fun, why stop having fun?

From Helen Thomas

From Helen Thomas

I can remember the morning after President Nixon won re-election in 1972. His chief of staff, H.R. Haldeman, called a Cabinet meeting and told the members: 'You are all a bunch of burned-out volcanoes;' and asked for their resignations.

From Helen Thomas

It's time for women to make their voices heard. Their silence on the subject of war and peace is deafening.

From Helen Thomas

I censored myself for 50 years when I was a reporter. Now I wake up and ask myself, 'Who do I hate today?'
