- [on husband Pierre] He was never a player like Nixon. He wanted to change things he saw as unjust, and did it. He had a rational brain. I have an intuitive one, so he relied on me a lot to understand the social nuances and things going on from an intuitive point-of-view. But his rational thinking was way beyond where I could go. He had a big grasp of how the world was going to change.
- [on an official trip to China in 1973] We were welcomed with such enthusiasm! There were maybe 10,000 children out on the tarmac with ribbons. Some of them were as small as three or four, dancing in perfect symmetry. I'd never seen anything like it! They had this same song that they sang. And there were flower petals and just joy and colour, and marching bands and noise.
