Sometimes, the only realists are the dreamers.
Politics isn't about big money or power games it's about the improvement of people's lives.
I saw as a teacher how, if you take that spark of learning that those children have, and you ignite it, you can take a child from any background to a lifetime of creativity and accomplishment.
When too many Americans don't vote or participate, some see apathy and despair. I see disappointment and even outrage. And I believe that out of this frustration can come hope and action.
The future will belong to those who have passion and are willing to work hard to make our country better.
I emphasize self-esteem, self-confidence, and dignity, not as an ideal, but as a real test of community organization. Without leadership development, community organizations do not have staying power.

I think the future also will not belong to those who are cynical or those who stand on the sidelines.
Our politics are our deepest form of expression: they mirror our past experiences and reflect our dreams and aspirations for the future.
Politics is not predictions and politics is not observations. Politics is what we do. Politics is what we do, politics is what we create, by what we work for, by what we hope for and what we dare to imagine.
Education and democracy have the same goal: the fullest possible development of human capabilities.
The only way to change is to vote. People are responsible.
