“Leadership means bringing people together in pursuit of a common cause, developing a plan to achieve it, and staying with it until the goal is achieved.”

I still believe in a place called Hope.

I am opposed to abortion and to government funding of abortions. We should not spend state funds on abortions because so many people believe abortion is wrong.

So much of modern politics is focused not on honest differences of policy but on personal attacks.

Keep your eyes on the prize and don’t turn back.

We must teach our children to resolve their conflicts with words, not weapons.

Sometimes there is a difference in what is legal and what ought to be done.

Today’s possibilities are not tomorrows guarantees.

Abortion should not only be safe and legal, it should be rare.

You can put wings on a pig, but you don’t make it an eagle.

Everybody counts, everybody deserves a chance, everybody has a responsible role to play and we all do better when we work together.

Let’s create an integrated global community where we have shared benefits and responsibilities, and we don’t fight because of our differences.

We cannot build our own future without helping others to build theirs.

Success is not the measure of a man but a triumph over those who choose to hold him back.

If you want to have a good life you have to have some constructive outlet for your feelings.

I misled people, including even my wife.

Mutual caring relationships require kindness and patience, tolerance, optimism, joy in the other’s achievements, confidence in oneself, and the ability to give without undue thought of gain.

Appreciate people for their achievement. Their growth will not limit yours.

You are one decision away from everything you want to achieve.

Every action you’ve been putting towards your dreams is creating a powerful momentum to achieve them.

If you can’t stop thinking about your dreams, work even harder to achieve it.

Nothing that results in human progress is achieved with unanimous consent. Those that are enlightened before the others are condemned to pursue that light in spite of the others.

We are always in the rush to achieve something that we want but in that rush, we forget about ourselves.

God depends on us. It is through us that God is achieved.
