Never let anyone in life tell you that you can't have something that you are willing to work for.

I think the fact is that anybody who goes into politics feels like 'I can make a difference'. But it's not one person, you need so many others

I get people stopping me on the street like twenty times a day, telling me how great it makes them feel and how it just helps them to go about their day and rebuild their lives. It means a tremendous amount.

There's always a little bit of personal satisfaction when you prove somebody wrong.

A good friend of mine once told me that each morning when you wake up, think about winning the day. Don't worry about a week from now or a month from now - just think about one day at a time. If you are worried about the mountain in the distance, you might trip over the molehill right in front of you. Win the day!

We just believed in ourselves, and we knew that we had an entire city and maybe an enitre country behind us. What can I say? I tried to imagine what this moment would be like for a long time, and it's better than expected.

I expect to make big plays. And when I don't, I'm upset about it.
