Quote by Rose Kennedy

Sometimes I wonder if there is something about my family which invites violence. 'Is it envy,' you ask? I don't know... I've had so much, a son as president, two as senators, a son-in-law who's an ambassador... perhaps God doesn't permit that much.

To a considerable extent we are faced by a technology arms race with terrorists.
