I've come to realize that an unencumbered U.S. senator is a profound threat to the whole system. It's somebody that they can't put in a box and say, 'Oh, well, we know how this guy is going to vote.'

There's no smarter politician out there than Bill Clinton.

Minnesotans know the difference between the job of satirist and the job of senator. And so do I.

It is a great privilege for any man to become a member of the Senate.

It takes a certain personality to thrive as a member of the House.

Pigs are smarter than dogs, and both are smarter than Congress.

Man is an intelligence in servitude to his organs.

The reason there are two senators for each state is so that one can be the designated driver.

Though the views of members of the House and Senate are as divergent as the people we represent, we bear the responsibility to work through our political differences and get things done. That's our job.
