We all leave personal legacies for the people we know and love.

I'm free. I'm free to say what I feel.

Education exposes young people to a broader world, a world full of opportunity and hope.

We are thinking ahead to long-term care, aware that many folks don't plan ahead and won't be ready. We want to see to it that people will have choices.

We cannot say to one couple that their love is deserving of marriage and to another that their love should only be called a partnership. 'Separate but equal' is never equal. Children of same-sex couples should not grow up wondering why their family is treated differently from other families

It's our responsibility to pass on what we inherited, not to squander it, but to build on it.

We need to take advantage of the opportunity we have now to create a vision and become great.
