It's critical to show that we can meet our commitment to students with disabilities without raising taxes and without increasing the deficit. In the past, there's been strong support for full funding and I'm still hearing that from many of my colleagues.

Congress seems to thrive on breaking promises and passing unfunded mandates down to local government. It's really just a matter of priorities.

Gay marriage won't be more of an issue 25 years from now than interracial marriage is today.

Lady Gaga is one of the most amazingly talented musicians to bring her gifts to humanity in a long time.

But parents and schools have their priorities; making sure our kids eat right because research shows a clear connection between nutrition and student performance in school.

Pizza certainly has its place in school meals, but equating it with broccoli, carrots and celery seriously undermines this nation's efforts to support children's health and their ability to learn because of better school nutrition.

If my son had a baseless accusation made against him at a university, and it was making his life there miserable, I would suggest he transfer or take courses online.

It can be a living hell to go through endless campus investigations. I've seen this go down, and there really is no winning once the accusation is made, even if the process provides formal vindication.

I have a horrible sense of direction.

I don't particularly care what people think of me as long as I know what I'm doing is right.

In general, I think it's an advantage politically to keep people guessing.

You have 435 people in the United States House of Representatives trying to get along.

With the policymaking process, you have an idea, and you try to sell other stakeholders on the idea. That's not much different than in business, where you're trying to find capital to make your idea a reality.

I want to make a difference.

I am from Colorado. I know Colorado inside and out.

Too many public and private entities simply don't take advantage of tools already at their disposal to protect themselves from hackers. No amount of information sharing will help solve that problem.

The federal government has an exceptionally poor record of behaving responsibly with Americans' personal information when entrusted with it.

I try to treat my orientation the same way I would if I was straight, which is to talk about it when it's relevant.

Before running for Congress, I was an innovator and entrepreneur who founded several high-tech businesses that created hundreds of jobs and schools that found ways to serve those children that traditional schools couldn't.

I have taken my outside-the-box, innovative, and sometimes unorthodox approach to Congress.

I am committed to leveling the playing field and expanding opportunity to all.

Just like my onscreen character Twinkle, I'm extremely scared of rats.

Over the years, I have realized that you have to feel good about your flaws or else the world will make you feel worse.

I think rather than being unhappy with somebody, being alone and happy is better.

My nana ji has a shop in Bapu Bazaar. Every summer, after my final exams, my mother would pack me off to my grandparents' home in Jaipur where we would visit nana ji's shop and I would roam around the market, holding his finger, wearing those cute Jaipuri lehengas.

I took up Naagin 4' because it's been a number one show. So, I guess it was a big opportunity for me to be part of it and that's why I took it.

I am not a very rough and tough kind of a girl, rather a little sensitive. I believe in unicorns, dreams and dolls.

I love and adore Salman Khan. Every year I see him on Bigg Boss' and I just freeze. I'm head over heels with his eyes and smile. He is a very charming personality.

Love can happen any moment, anywhere, but I am also a person who believes more in friendship than love, relationships, and affairs.

I am not a swimmer so a bit of phobia is always there with water stunts.

I am a woman of substance and there's a lot inside me. I have had my own struggles and my journey.

I think it is really important for all of us to take breaks because we get so bored with our daily monotonous lives. I feel we become robotic so it is important to break that vicious circle in which we get caught.

I have grown up in a small city where watching TV is a ritual and Balaji has defined TV in so many ways.

Trolls have never bothered me. I am someone who looks at it and laughs.

When Mouni Roy became Naagin' or even Adaa Khan, Surbhi Jyoti, everybody did it differently, so I want to do it my way as well.

I believe each character you do, you should add your touch and uniqueness to it.

When I was a model, I met someone. I don't want to name the person. But things did not go well. I was new and could not understand what was happening. But I have learnt my lesson. I will not date any actor for sure.

I believe your career is one of the few things that stay with you forever. It also gives you the confidence to lead a happy life.

No one is supposed to know about my personal life because that is supposed to be kept private.

When I am linked with close friends, it affects my friendship with them, and that's upsetting.

Can't a boy and a girl be friends? Can't I go out on holidays with my friends? Like everyone else I also enjoy spending time with my friends.

When love happens I won't shy away from sharing.

I believe the first role you play helps you make a mark.

I am lucky to have got the character of Twinkle to make my debut. I not only learnt so much playing the role, but it also gave me popularity.

You can pair me up with anybody but that's not a nice thing to do. I should also be comfortable to make male friends.

As actors we are often seen well-dressed and well-behaved in the public eye but we are humans at the end of the day. Like anyone else we also get angry, upset, frustrated, get mood swings. We are loving, caring too.

I am not insecure or conscious that my image might get hampered. I don't think one should think the image will get spoilt due to Bigg Boss.'

I will never stoop low to do certain things on camera.

Whether it is fame, love or respect, the Telly world has given me everything that I craved for.

Honestly, I have got some movie offers. But, TV has given me a sense of stability.
