I never felt more loved than when I was with Elvis.

Elvis was sincere, and he was - he was so loyal. And he was so homespun. He loved his mother, he loved America. You know, he loved his fellow man. He had a great humanitarian philanthropic sense.

When Elvis came out on stage, it became electric. And the way people responded to him was such that, you know, I never saw that kind of response toward any other performer.

Why did I break up with Elvis? It was difficult to watch his slow demise.

Elected office holds more perks than Elvis' nightstand.

Never let a problem to be solved become more important than a person to be loved.
