Leaks are not the problem; they are the symptom. They reveal a disconnect between what people want and need to know and what they actually do know. The greater the secrecy, the more likely a leak.

As leakers take great risks in releasing information, assuring them that they are not sacrificing themselves in vain and that their leaks would have public consequences would most likely encourage more people to leak.

I haven't leaked anything to anybody. They are wrong!

Usually you kind of give the President a pass on leaking confidential stuff.

Leaking of classified material is a concern.

If there's a leak out of my administration, I want to know who it is.

I worry about my sides. I worry where everything goes. I worry that I'm going to be the leak. I give all my scripts back!

There should be at least one leak like the Pentagon Papers every year.

No matter how I look, the freak inside me leaks out.
