More From Coretta Scott King

Our president delivered his state of the union message to congress. that is one of the things his contract calls for -- to tell congress the condition of the country. this message, as i say, is to congress. the rest of the people know the condition of the country, for they live in it, but congress has no idea what is going on in america, so the president has to tell 'em.

I will continue to fight for legislation that forces congress to read the bills! i will fight for a vote on my bill that calls for a waiting period for each page of legislation. i will continue to object when congress sticks special interest riders on bills in the dead of night! and if congress refuses to obey its own rules, if congress refuses to pass a budget, if congress refuses to read the bills, then i say: sweep the place clean. limit their terms and send them home!

This congress did more to uplift education, more to attack disease in this country and around the world, and more to conquer poverty than any other session in all american history, and what more worthy achievements could any person want to have? for it was the congress that was more true than any other congress to thomas jefferson's belief that: 'the care of human life and happiness is the first and only legitimate objective of good government.'

It seems to me that our three basic needs, for food and security and love, are so mixed and mingled and entwined that we cannot straightly think of one without the others. so it happens that when i write of hunger, i am really writing about love and the hunger for it, and warmth and the love of it and the hunger for it… and then the warmth and richness and fine reality of hunger satisfied… and it is all one.

When a lot of things are going the wrong way for a country, for a people, when you can't really think of anything worse than a war, you always try to take life on the brighter side and that's how i grew up with my parents.

I think america the symbol and america the notion are still very different from america the nation. what's touching and almost regenerative is that whatever is happening in the reality of america, where there is a murder rate worse than lebanon's and where there is so much homelessness and poverty, still america will be a shorthand throughout the world for everything that is young and modern and free.

I like being alone and i think this movie, as much as it is an investigation of connection and people bonding, i also think it's just as much about loneliness.
