There's one room in every marriage that forces the question, How long do we want it to be just the two of us?

I think growing up in a big family taught me a lot of problem solving and how to share and compromise, and that's been helpful in my marriage.

I have a lot of responsibilities outside myself. I have a large family. I want to know I can always be helpful.

Samantha is my friend. She's my family. My insides. She will be fine because she has to be fine. That's how important she is to me.

I'm very, very concerned about the Bush presidency. I'm worried about the kinds of cuts in domestic programs that mean something to a lot of people, including members of my family, who depend on certain things from the government.

This does have serious implications for not only the business world but for marriage and family. Are all these educated women going to allow themselves to fall in love with men who haven't achieved as much?
