Mark ZuckerbergWhen you face a ‚performance‘ that might provoke the ‚I’m scared‘ response, choose love and approach your opportunity as a chance to dance with God. It’s more fun than ‚Dancing with the Stars!‘
Wayne DyerThe day will come – and it is not far off – when the legacy of Lincoln will finally be fulfilled at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, when a black man or woman will sit in the Oval Office. When that day comes, the most remarkable thing about it will be how naturally it occurs.

Michelle ObamaGovernment can provide opportunity. But opportunity means nothing unless people are prepared to seize it.
Richard M. NixonMy father, who was jailed for stealing on more than one occasion, just abandoned his fatherly responsibilities and disappeared. I grew up working from the time I was nine years of age. Money was a big issue everywhere I lived.

Mother TeresaHow should a man be capable of grooming his own horse, or of furbishing his own spear and helmet, if he allows himself to become unaccustomed to tending even his own person, which is his most treasured belonging?

Desmond TutuArtists have a responsibility to speak and to act when governments fail, and if we don’t do that, we really deserve the world we get.
Alice WalkerThe issues a president faces are not black and white, and cannot be boiled down into 140 characters. Because when you have the nuclear codes at your fingertips and the military at your command, you can’t make snap decisions. You can’t have a thin skin or the tendency to lash out.
Michelle ObamaI think it is a sin to look at another person as inferior to yourself because of race or because of ethnic background, and I think the greatest thing to do is to pray that God will give you love for them, and I do.
Billy GrahamThe American people have not become heartless.
Joe BidenOpen Graph is a language for structuring content and sharing that goes on in other apps, and we’re continuing to build it out longer term.

Mark ZuckerbergAn eye for an eye only leads to more blindness.
Margaret AtwoodGay marriage is going to happen. It must.
Lady GagaI want to marry Arline because I love her – which means I want to take care of her. That is all there is to it. I want to take care of her. I am anxious for the responsibilities and uncertainties of taking care of the girl I love.
Richard P. FeynmanEight years ago, you may remember Hillary and I were rivals for the Democratic nomination. We battled for a year and a half. Let me tell you, it was tough, because Hillary was tough. I was worn out. She was doing everything I was doing, but just like Ginger Rogers, it was backwards in heels.
Barack ObamaI feel like I write so that people can think of it as theirs. If my song is exactly about your life right now, then it is – I don’t even want to say that it’s mine, because it’s yours.
Billie EilishThe secret of success is to be ready when your opportunity comes.
Benjamin DisraeliEvery time I see documentaries or infomercials about little kids with cancer, I just freak out. It affects me on the highest emotional level… Anytime I think about it, it makes me sadder than anything I can think of.
Kurt CobainFailure is nature’s plan to prepare you for great responsibilities.
Napoleon HillNow, as a nation, we don’t promise equal outcomes, but we were founded on the idea everybody should have an equal opportunity to succeed. No matter who you are, what you look like, where you come from, you can make it. That’s an essential promise of America. Where you start should not determine where you end up.
Barack ObamaWe should all be obliged to appear before a board every five years and justify our existence… on pain of liquidation.

Tennessee WilliamsA tear dries quickly when it is shed for troubles of others.
Marcus Tullius CiceroPeople have me pinned as a shark or a predator in some way, and in no way am I that. I wouldn’t want to hurt anyone. I want to defend people. I want to help people.
Kanye WestWe have an obligation to help people that cannot help themselves. The mentally retarded, the physically retarded, et cetera.
Lou HoltzSo what we’re talking about here is human rights. The right to live like a human. The right to live, period. And what we’re facing in Africa is an unprecedented threat to human dignity and equality.

Lady GagaFreedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.

Jesus ChristAll of these young people have some kind of potential in them. And if we don’t invest in them as a nation, regardless of where they come from or what color they are, if we don’t invest in them, we lose.
Michelle Obama
