I LOVE GIVING gifts and I love receiving them. I REALLY like giving LITTLE kids extravagant gifts. You see their little faces light up and they get excited. If it's a really good gift, I love receiving it, like jewels, small islands.

For me, AWARDS are a token of RESPECT that PEOPLE are GIVING me. So no matter how many awards I am receiving, I ALWAYS feel emotional.

We should insist that governments receiving American AID live up to standards of accountability and transparency, and we should support countries that embrace MARKET reforms, DEMOCRACY, and the rule of law.

We always NEED to BEAR in mind that when it comes to BLOOD transfusion, it's the PERSON that's RECEIVING the blood who takes the risk, not the person donating it.

On RECEIVING from the people the SACRED trust twice confided on my illustrious predecessor, and which he has discharged so faithfully and so well, I know that I can not EXPECT to perform the arduous task with equal ability and SUCCESS.
