I've been careless with a delicate man.
And it's a sad, sad world

I've come to you 'cause I need guidance to be true,
And I just don't know where I can begin.”

“I kissed a girl and I liked it,
The taste of her cherry chap stick.
I kissed a girl just to try it,

I kissed a girl and I liked it,
I liked it.”

“Alan Stock: What do you say, then, to a young girl—I am going to place it as he said it—when a young girl is raped by her father, let's say, and she is pregnant. How do you explain this to her in terms of wanting her to go through the process of having the baby?
Sharron Angle: I think that two wrongs don't make a right. And I have been in the situation of counseling young girls, not 13 but 15, who have had very at risk, difficult pregnancies. And my counsel was to look for some alternatives, which they did. And they found that they had made what was really a lemon situation into lemonade.”
