“I’d say: ‘We’ve got this big fiscal mess. We’re not leaving till you guys solve this and then we’ll go out together and sell it to the country.’ ”

David Brooks

“It gets harder and harder for America to compete in this global economy without making these really tough decisions.”

Erskine Bowles

“Nothing is agreed to until everything is agreed to.”

Sarah Binder

“We’re hungry for people who will call us to a higher standard, to compromise.”

Dianne English
