"We are the change we have been..." - Quote by Barack Obama

“I want to make sure that as president of the United States that I'm not asserting in some way that my decisions overrule the decisions of prosecutors who are there to uphold the law.”

“Look, first of all, the climate is changing. I don't think the science is clear what percentage is man-made and what percentage is natural. It's convoluted. And for the people to say the science is decided on, this is just really arrogant, to be honest with you, it's this intellectual arrogance that now you can't even have a conversation about it. The climate is changing, and we need to adapt to that reality.”

“Each of us deserves the freedom to pursue our own version of happiness. No one deserves to be bullied.”

“The vanishing, volatile froth of the present which any shadow will alter, any thought blow away, any event annihilate, is every moment converted into the adamantine.”

“The human heart is not unchanging (nay, changes almost out of recognition in the twinkling of an eye).”

“You cannot have growth without change.”

“Only make decisions that support your self-image, self-esteem, and self-worth.”

“To my mind, it is the duty of the younger Negro artist, if he accepts any duties at all from outsiders, to change through the force of his art that old whispering 'I want to be white,' hidden in the aspirations of his people, to 'Why should I want to be white? I am a Negro - and beautiful!'”

“You've got to find the force inside you.”
