Quotes by Kate Andersen Brower (?)

“If you bungle raising your children, I don't think whatever else you do well matters very much - Jackie Kennedy”
― Kate Andersen Brower, First Women: The Grace and Power of America's Modern First Ladies

3 likes

“The Elms was the Johnsons’ Washington, D.C., mansion and it was equipped with a shower like nothing the staff had ever seen: water charging out of multiple nozzles in every direction with needlelike intensity and a hugely powerful force. One nozzle was pointed directly at the president’s penis, which he nicknamed “Jumbo.” Another shot right up his rear.”
― Kate Andersen Brower, The Residence: Inside the Private World of the White House

“The Clintons spent roughly $400,000 redecorating the White House, all financed by private donations. But the effort raised some eyebrows, both within and outside the mansion.”
― Kate Andersen Brower, The Residence: Inside the Private World of the White House
