I was always told as a kid the most important thing you could have was a job that paid you sick pay if you needed it and came with a bit of a pension.

The worst job that I ever did, I used to have a Saturday job cleaning the dough off bread-making machines for Warburtons in Bolton. That was horrendous.

Every parent just wants their child to be happy and to protect them. I should be the happiest I have ever been with my career, family and friends, but I can honestly say I am never happy in myself now. I constantly worry about them.

I'd like people to be more aware of the benefits of communities. Lots of problems could be solved that way.

My first experiences of Colorado travel have been rather severe. At Greeley, I got a small upstairs room at first, but gave it up to a married couple with a child, and then had one downstairs no bigger than a cabin, with only a canvas partition. It was very hot, and every place was thick with black flies.

The Asia Pacific region within TPP encompasses nearly 40 percent of the world's GDP. Shaping the rules of the road for trade in this region is good for our workers and businesses - and it is good for our national security as well.

It is in the compelling zest of high adventure and of victory, and in creative action, that man finds his supreme joys.

I do get to meet a lot of people, and I do get to travel quite a bit. You may laugh, but it's a tough job.
