The following are things that Nancy Reagan actually said through the years. “People aren't really poor until they start using water on their corn flakes.” “She [Raisa Gorbachev] was lecturing me about Communism, and I couldn't wait for her to stop.” “I think people would be alive today if there were a death penalty.” “I don't intend for this to take on a political tone. I'm just here for the drugs.” “I don't really yell at people.” “Remember, I'm a doctor's daughter. So obviously I'm interested in all medical things.” “I don't think most people associate me with leeches or how to get them off. But I know how to get them off. I'm an expert at it.” “I'm against abortion. On the other hand, I believe in a woman's choice.” “I think a woman gets more if she acts feminine.” “I always liked red. It's a picker-upper.”
