I did not want to make any mistakes. I took my chances on the holes I needed to and made birdies.

This was the Prime Minister's prerogative. It's rubbish to say there's been a tussle.

Under no circumstances not even in the least have I ever interfered in their autonomy.

The ones that I do make mistakes, they are not as bad as the bad ones I used to do, so my bad is not that bad and my good is pretty good.

The longer you live, the more mistakes you make. And the more sorrows you carry.

It's important to learn and not repeat the same mistakes. What's done is done.
