“So I made a mistake. That happens. It proves I'm human, which you know, for some people, is a revelation…. I was also told that the greeting ceremony had been moved away from the tarmac but that there was this eight-year-old girl and I said, 'Well, I, I can't, I can't rush by her, I've got to at least greet her.' So I greeted her, I took her stuff and I left. Now that's my memory of it.”

And took a book I had,
And put a ribbon on my hair
To please a passing lad.

I've been a wicked girl," said I;
But if I can't be sorry, why,
I might as well be glad!”
