The Republican National Convention is a great place to hear people talk about politics and values and all that sort of thing. But there's one thing brings me back year after year, and that's white people dancing. The RNC is the world's premier Caucasian amateur dance festival.

I'm always looking to the next thing. There are always hurdles, whether it's the White House dinner or hosting charity events or that night's show: Until they're over, I worry, then I move right on to the next thing. It's hard for me to enjoy the moment. I'm just thinking about not failing.

Applause is the most powerful thing... people talk about the sound of it, but what I hear is glee.

That's the great thing about a tractor. You can't really hear the phone ring.

Quite often you hear people say, 'What about separation of church and state?' There is no such thing.

Most people have to talk so they won't hear.
