Patience is a virtue, but impatience gets things done.

My parents have been incredibly supportive from perhaps the first real independent decision I made to become a vegetarian at 11, which was certainly not consistent with their diet at the time.

Even during my father's 1984 gubernatorial campaign, it was, 'Do you want to grow up and be governor one day?' 'No. I am four.'

I hope that young people will also look to politics as a vehicle to not only have their voices heard, but actually to be the change makers that they want to see. They are disaffected, understandably, but I hope that young people will not only turn out to vote but also run for office.

I am so proud and grateful to be my mom's daughter.

Patience is a virtue, but impatience gets things done.

I unapologetically and unabashedly am deeply biased toward my mother.
