Everything that I'm seeing in America, when it comes to the groundwater contamination and the poisoning of people I see, it's a moral issue. Nobody's ever gonna convince me that a CEO wouldn't care if his own child was poisoned.

For me, what I see happening in this [clean water] crisis is deterioration of the family. It is deterioration of our health.

None of us can take anything with us when we're gone. It's what we leave that's gonna matter.

Take It From Me: Life's a Struggle but You Can Win

You will definitely find moments where somebody else is going to try to suppress you or put you down, but you have a choice in how you see yourself.

If you can go out there and stand up for what it is you believe in no matter how many times you are knocked down, in the end the swinging of your own blows will exhaust them.

My mom and my dad taught me the greatest gifts we have are our family, our health and the right to clean water and good land.
