President Clinton, the Oval Office, January 20, 2001

"On my desk is the letter I left for George Bush, and I'm just looking out at the view I love so much one last time. I loved the Oval Office. It's always light. Even on the darkest of days the Oval Office was always light because you had these windows here, and then this whole part of the room is lighted indirectly. It's the best place in the whole world to work because it's quiet and airy and light. It always lifted my spirits to go in there. It really is the most wonderful office." -- Bill Clinton
