"And what would help minority workers are..." - Quote by Barack Obama

“Estiven Rodriguez couldn't speak a word of English when he moved to New York City at age nine. But last month, thanks to the support of great teachers and an innovative tutoring program, he led a march of his classmates - through a crowd of cheering parents and neighbors - from their high school to the post office, where they mailed off their college applications. And this son of a factory worker just found out he's going to college this fall.”

“None of this is fair to you. And should it continue, it will make it more difficult to keep attracting the kind of driven, patriotic, idealist Americans to public service that our citizens deserved and that our system of self-government demands.”

“When times change, so must we.”

“Capitalism will always survive, because socialism will be there to save it.”

“There are two ways to increase your wealth. Increase your means or decrease your wants. The best is to do both at the same time.”

“The injury of prodigality leads to this, that he who will not economize will have to agonize.”

“Let us say boldly, that if the total slum violations of law by the white man over the years were calculated and compared with the lawbreaking of a few days of riots, the hardened criminal would be the white man.”

“Let no one try to justify the glaring difference between the classes and the masses, the prince and the pauper, by saying that the former need more.”

“And I do not want, and I will not accept, a deal in which I am asked to do nothing, in fact, I'm able to keep hundreds of thousands of dollars in additional income that I don't need, while a parent out there who is struggling to figure out how to send their kid to college suddenly finds that they've got a couple thousand dollars less in grants or student loans.”
