The Highest Calling Quotes

“DR: And how do you compare the pleasure of being secretary of state, senator, and First Lady with being a grandmother? HRC: There are similarities. Negotiating with three-year-olds is about as hard as anything I did as secretary of state. There was a point where Charlotte, our granddaughter, now eight, was born, and when we would take care of her, Bill and I outnumbered her. And so that worked. Then along came Aiden, who’s now six, and it was so much harder. And now with Jasper, who’s three, we’re just exhausted. It’s like, let me fly a million miles around the world, talking to dictators. I’ll get more worn out chasing the three-year-old around.”
