I think my main concern is because I worry about demagoguery. It's real. You see the people standing up there and applauding.

A nation will not survive morally or economically when so few have so much and so many have so little.

The problems we face, did not come down from the heavens. They are made, they are made by bad human decisions, and good human decisions can change them.

What my campaign is about is a political revolution - millions of people standing up and saying, enough is enough. Our government belongs to all of us, and not just the hand full of billionaires.

Through travel I first became aware of the outside world; it was through travel that I found my own introspective way into becoming a part of it.

Analysis and synthesis are both as necessary to the thinking spirit as inspiration and expiration to the organism.

Fools, most linguists. Damn all to say in one language, so they learn another and say damn all in that.

There can be no black-white unity until there is first some black unity.

Bereavement is terrible, of course. And when somebody you love dies, it's a time for reflection, a time for memory, a time for regret.
