"I'm not going to have some reporters pawing through our papers. We are the president." --Hillary Clinton commenting on the release of subpoenaed documents.

"Half this game is ninety percent mental." --Philadelphia Phillies manager, Danny Ozark

So 1/2 of it is 9/10 mental, which means that it's 9/20 mental, in total.

"If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure." --Bill Clinton, President

I'm sure there are some instances where you don't fail if you don't succeed.

"We are ready for an unforeseen event that may or may not occur." --Al Gore, VP

What's wrong with this one?

"Your food stamps will be stopped effective March 1992 because we received notice that you passed away. May God bless you. You may reapply if there is a change in your circumstances."--Department of Social Services, Greenville, South Carolina

I think this is for the family, and if the death was misreported, then they can reapply.
