Almost everything Truman did in foreign affairs I approve of.
Stephen Ambrose
At the time it seriously troubled me, but in drafting me as Marshall Plan Administrator, President Truman did as great a favor for me as one man can do for another. It opened my eyes to many things of which I was totally unaware and it was the beginning of my real education.
Paul Hoffman
Before Truman Capote, journalism and non-fiction weren't taken very seriously.
Gerald Clarke
Before Truman, journalism and non-fiction weren't taken very seriously.

For The Truman Show, I worked for a few weeks, do my gig, then I was done.
Ed Harris
I am the heterosexual Truman Capote.
Joseph Epstein
I liked Truman very much. He was precise and businesslike. After a while, it was his turn.
Lord Mountbatten
I think Democrats made a mistake running away from liberalism. Liberalism, uh, Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, John and Robert Kennedy - that's what the Democratic party ought to reach for.
Theodore C. Sorensen
I would like to say that no man ever was given finer cooperation than that given me by President Truman.
Paul Hoffman
I would say that President Roosevelt probably was more intimately in touch with the press corps at the White House than President Truman was.
Clifton Daniel
It was immediately apparent that it was full of tricky ingredients to balance. In fact, I found it very intriguing. What held me back from saying yes to the producer was that I wasn't sure who could play Truman.
Peter Weir
It was such a leap in my career when 'Truman Show' came along. It's always been a long process for me insofar as recognition goes, but that's OK because you appreciate it when it comes.
Jim Carrey
Jimmy Carter as President is like Truman Capote marrying Dolly Parton. The job is just too big for him.
Rich Little
Mr. Truman studiously avoided giving power to his White House staff that has been characteristic of recent administrations. Staff people in the White House, with no responsibility but incredible authority is one of the reasons we're now in so much trouble.
Stuart Symington
My favorite monologue in the book is Kate Harrington's story of her relationship with Truman.
George Plimpton
My lasting impression of Truman Capote is that he was a terribly gentle, terribly sensitive, and terribly sad man.
Alvin Ailey
My life is not unlike Truman's. I can't go anywhere.
Jim Carrey
That was the principle of reparations to which President Truman agreed at Potsdam. And the United States will not agree to the taking from Germany of greater reparations than was provided by the Potsdam Agreement.
James F. Byrnes
We support President Truman's civil rights program.
Eugenie Anderson
Well, you know what, I'm 60 years old, and I've been interested in politics since I was on my daddy's knee. During the 1948 election, we were praying for Truman. I know a lot about politics.
