«Taken in context, what I was saying was that, compared to Europe, America is a very young country and we are still growing as a nation. It is a shame that the metaphor I used was taken so radically out of context and slung about irresponsibly by the news media. There was no anti-American sentiment. In fact, it was just the opposite.

I have benefited greatly from the freedom that exists in my country and for this I am eternally grateful.»
«Though it be honest, it is never good to bring bad news.»
