America gets the politicians they deserve. That's it. And you keep struggling.

But find something that you absolutely love doing. And then get to love the way you do it. That's the uniqueness of all of us. That's it.

I was an organizer in the Food, Agricultural and Tobacco Workers Union down in North Carolina.

I prefer that for my own satisfaction over radio, there's no audience. TV, there's no audience. I need the response of the audience, even if it's a silent response.

As long as you gave it your best shot, even if in the opinion of others 'you failed,' you didn't fail.

The ruling class is smarter than you, and they're more creative. And if you forget that lesson, you go down the drain. Because if they weren't, they wouldn't be around as long as they have been and as strong as they have been.

Understood what the struggle was about. My mother. Couldn't read or write, but she had more sense than many a graduate from Harvard.
