Because of these preconceptions, I felt that I couldn't go to just any HRGSA meeting. I thought that my appearance at a meeting would be so conspicuous as to emphasize only the fact that I had never been there before--which, I figured, would make obvious to all that I was unsure of myself, that I was troubled.

"Obviously, I think Nixon's a tremendous national resource and it's a shame he can't be used. I don't think it's realistic to expect him to be used at this point," Price says. Price seems uncomfortable when conjecturing about what type of elder statesman role might suit Nixon...
