Jackie Quote

Jackie Kennedy: I wrote him a letter. That night, before we moved the casket to the Capitol. Do you know what I wrote? That I wanted to die. I wanted to die.
The Priest: I understand.
Jackie Kennedy: Do you?
The Priest: I do. Unless you are asking permission.
Jackie Kennedy: No, only crass, self-indulgent people kill themselves. No, I was just hoping... if I walked down the street next to Jack's body then someone would be kind enough to do it for me.
The Priest: In front of the whole world... A famous life, a famous death.
Jackie Kennedy: I never wanted fame. I just became a Kennedy.
