Over the summer I thought that I would seek out non-Americans as friends, just for diversity's sake. Now I find that I want to be around Americans - people who I know are thinking about our country as much as I am.

I'm sorry, I don't talk to the press. Even though I think you're cute.

I think that we need women role models everywhere. I think that it's really hard to imagine yourself as something that you don't see.

For me it's just so exciting to have a daughter because I do think she will have even more opportunities than I had, and I had more opportunities than certainly my grandmother had. It's the arc of history, always bending toward justice and opportunity, and she will be part of that.

When my father announced his campaign for president on Oct. 3, 1991, I had already cast my vote in favor of his candidacy.

I'm a big believer in listening to my body's cravings.

My parents always asked me what I thought, listened to my opinions, articulated their diagnoses of our challenges at home and abroad, and shared their ideas for how to build a more equal and prosperous country. I always felt part of their call to serve and part of my father's journey.
