Bags Quote by Dick Cheney
“I reached a point towards the end on the old heart where I had trouble getting out of a chair. All I wanted to do was get out of bed in the morning and walk to my office and sit back down in the chair. Now I throw 50 pound bags of horse feed in the back of my pickup truck and I don't even think about it. I'm back doing those things.”

![“[In response to the question "Do you think that you underestimated the insurgency's strength?"] I think so. I guess if I look back on it now, I don't think anybody anticipated the level of violence that we've encountered.” quote by Dick Cheney](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/381/dick-cheney-1810_ifs_in-response-to-the-question-do-you-think_74078.jpg)
