I think I am typical in believing that the Peace Corps trained us brilliantly and then did little more except send us into the bush. It was not a bad way of running things.

The Peace Corps is a sort of Howard Johnson's on the main drag into maturity.

It's better to send in the Peace Corps than the Marine Corps.

My record was so bad that I was first rejected by the Peace Corps as a poor risk and possible troublemaker and was accepted as a volunteer only after a great deal of explaining and arguing.

My mother went into the Peace Corps when she was sixty-eight.

I am happy being what I am.
