From an interview with US Secretary of State, Condoleeza Rice, by BusinessWeek magazine:

BusinessWeek: Would you consider a position in business or on Wall Street?
Condoleezza Rice: I don’t know what I’ll do long-term. I’m a terrible long-term planner.

~ “A Resolute Condoleezza Rice“, BusinessWeek, 23 July 02007
