I'm not - I'm not a person looking for money. I have no political ambitions whatsoever. I don't seek power. I don't seek any kind of praise. I have no ego to fulfill.

My feelings on homosexuality are unequivocal. I have absolutely no problem with it whatsoever. My only reservation is marriage.

I'm not part of the friends-and-family club; I'm not part of the pay-to-play club; I'm not looking to get re-elected. I'm not looking to go to another office and fill my campaign coffers. I don't need any friends in Albany except the people of the state.

I'm beyond the normal person. I'm not your everyday Joe.

The death of my kid made me a stronger person. There's no end to what I'm willing to do.

Don't misquote me as wanting to hurt homosexual people in any way. That would be a dastardly lie.
