	`I was dramatically shaped by my grandmother and my aunts
	because they convinced me there was always a cookie available.

	`Deep down inside me, I'm four years old. I wake up and think,
	Out there, there's a cookie. Either it can be baked or it's 
	already been bought, but its' in a jar somewhere.

	`And so that means when you open up the cupboard and the
	cookie isn't there, I don't say, Gee, there's no cookie.
	I say, I wonder where it is.'

	 -- Newt Gingrich, speaking recently at a televised college lecture.
