I know my limitations, and I don't like politics. I was only involved because of my husband.

I have to defend my husband.

That, sir, depends on whether I embrace your mistress or your politics.

Political rivals attacked me. I was savagely beaten. I was kicked in the face and I lost my eye as a result.

I'm a complete coward in real life.

Oh, Mr Coward, sir - I could never have an affair with you, because you remind me of my father!

Politicians love to beat up on guys that are seen to be public enemies, if you will. That's a great way to get elected.

I run; I am a coward at heart. I swear, when I smell violence or aggression the coward comes out in me. I have no desire to fight anybody except myself.

I'd think, 'In a relationship, we should never have his kind of fight.' Then, instead of figuring out how to make it work, I looked for a way to get out of it. The truth is, you shouldn't be married if your that kind of person.

The harshest thing I can say is I was married to someone for whom all dissent was abuse. If you had your own opinion, you were abusive.
