Dianne Feinstein, as quoted in Massachusetts senator Edward Kennedy diagnosed with brain tumour (20 May 2008)
“
My heart dropped when I heard the news about Senator Kennedy. There is reason for optimism. He has great physicians, a loving and beautiful wife in Vicki, and the indomitable Kennedy spirit. I look forward to the day when Senator Kennedy is back on the Senate floor, giving one of his famous stem-winder speeches. I hope that day will be soon.
