- Fran (on running to replace Hilary Clinton's soon-to-be vacant seat in the Senate, December 2008): I've just been given the appointment of U.S. diplomat. My title is public diplomacy envoy for women's health issues, and I just got back from a four-country European tour of duty. I believe next I'll be sent to the Middle East. I've been very successful in getting a bill passed in Washington. I was thinking I'd take the next four years to lay some groundwork, but I'm throwing my hat in the ring. I'm an authentic and honest person. And I think Capitol Hill needs more of that.

- Fran: (On her relationship with a younger man) It ran its course. Sometimes people come into your life for a season and other times for a lifetime. I believe he came into my life for a reason: to get me through my bout with cancer. Our relationship lasted for two years after that, and then it was time to move on. But there was a lot that came out of that and certainly a lot to draw on creatively.
