What the people here have said is that given the enormous crises facing our country, it is just too late for the same old, same old establishment politics and establishment economics.

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.

An America where every person, no matter their race, their disability or their sexual orientation realizes the full promise of equality that is our birthright as Americans.

It's better to show up than to give up.

It's time to make our government work for all of us... and not just the 1%.

Real change never occurs from the top on down, [but] always from the bottom on up.

It costs a hell of a lot more money to put somebody in jail than send them to the University of Virginia.

The point is change can come about, but it only comes about when millions of people are actively involved in political struggle, the billionaires may have the money, but we have the people.

What kind of nation are we when we give tax breaks to billionaires, but we can't take care of the elderly and the children.

Accept each other's fault with brotherly love.

Trying to explain or define grace is like catching the wind in a cardboard box or describing the color green.

Life is an exciting business, and most exciting when it is lived for others.

Nothing's black or white in our country - you're either brilliant or you're hopeless

I always want a challenge. My whole career has been based on trying to avoid female characters that don't get to do anything. And it's really hard to avoid those.

I knew that a day I took away from the work did not make me too happy.

You cannot do wrong without suffering wrong.

I suppose I'll be able to get a drink there.

Policymakers think that if they get the abstractions right, that will drive behavior in the desired direction. But the world happens in real time.

I once tried standing up on my toes to see far out in the distance, but I found that I could see much farther by climbing to a high place.
