I'm tired and nervous and I'm in America. Here you don't know that you live.

Physically I'm tired at the end of the day and quite glad to be reading in bed by midnight.

I'm tired, but proud.

We keep waiting for the American people to wake up, and they keep hitting the snooze bar. But something, folks, someday, will wake them up. Of that I'm confident.

It is so great to sleep in safe, glorious, beautiful America. I just cannot get over it.

I go to bed at night worrying that I didn't do enough that day to make sure I protect the American people.

Is it true that the American people are war-weary? Absolutely. We are tired of sending our sons and daughters to distant lands year after year after year, to give their lives trying to transform foreign nations.

You cannot give up on the American dream. We cannot allow our fears and our disappointments to lead us into silence and into inaction.

I was tired. I hadn't slept eight hours in two, three years. I lived on four, five hours of sleep. You can do it during a campaign because thousands are screaming for you. You're getting adrenaline shots each day. Then the campaign ends, and there are no more shots.
