Ted Olson quotes
" Barbara would have insisted that I live my life and that I go on and do the best possible job I could as solicitor general of the United States. "

Ted Olson
" But then to hear her voice was reassuring and calming. But then her next words out of her mouth were that, "Ted, my plane's been hijacked." "

Ted Olson
" I immediately called the command center of the Department of Justice to let them know that my wife was on a plane that had been hijacked. I mainly wanted them know there was another hijacked plane out there. "

Ted Olson
" I wanted it not to be true. I wanted it not to be her plane. I wanted it - I wanted, if it was her plane, to have somehow survived because she was in the back of the airplane. But we know that doesn't happen, not with those sorts of things. "

Ted Olson
" My wife had taken off on a plane. Two airplanes had crashed into the World Trade Center. I, of course, like any other person, felt potentially devastated, panicky a little bit. "

Ted Olson
" She said it had been hijacked shortly after takeoff. By this time, the plane had been in the air - again, I'm presuming that it took off on time - for over an hour. "

Ted Olson
" So Barbara wanted to be where things were happening, wanted to have opinions, wanted to express them, and wanted to live every moment of her life. "

Ted Olson
" That was the kind of person she was. That's the kind of relationship that we had. I will always wonder whether I should have. But she - her instinct was: "What do we do? What do we tell - what shall I tell the pilot? What can I do?" "

Ted Olson
" The calls that I have received from President Bush and Vice President Cheney, the fact that there are other people that are suffering every bit as much as I am, and that our whole nation is going through a tragedy together, I think we have to think about those things. "

Ted Olson
" The plane took off at 8:10 in the morning - or that's when it was scheduled to take off. And that's when I believe it took off. I had been in my office at the Department of Justice. Someone told me that there had been the two strikes that occurred at the World Trade Center. "

Ted Olson
" Well, she managed to - Barbara was capable of doing practically anything if she set her mind to it. In retrospect, I'm not surprised that Barbara managed to get collect calls through. "

Ted Olson
" You have to take strength from the people that love you and the people that love Barbara and the huge number of expressions of sympathy and compassion and support. That has been extremely moving. "

Ted Olson
