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!

To love someone deeply gives you strength. Being loved by someone deeply gives you courage.

If you want a love message to be heard, it has got to be sent out. To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.

If women have young children, they are one man away from welfare.

I've never rejected the world I came from. To be rejected by it is horrible.
