I see Americans of every party, every background, every faith who believe that we are stronger together: black, white, Latino, Asian, Native American; young, old; gay, straight; men, women, folks with disabilities, all pledging allegiance under the same proud flag to this big, bold country that we love. That's what I see. That's the America I know!

At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet.

Man, alone, has the power to transform his thoughts into physical reality; man, alone, can dream and make his dreams come true.

Those who do not want to imitate anything, produce nothing.

If you want to make peace with your enemy, you have to work with your enemy. Then he becomes your partner.
