    -- Arnold Schwarzenegger

    "Lots of these politicians fly around with Secret Service and Air Force One and all that. Then they step down and all of a sudden they're flying first class on a commercial plane. I don't do that. I have a private plane. But I fly commercial when I go to environmental conferences."
