Whatever advantages may have arisen, in the past, out of the existence of a specially favored and highly privileged aristocracy, it is clear to me that today no argument can stand that supports unequal opportunity or any intrinsic disqualification for sharing in the whole of life.

Injustice experienced in the flesh, in deeply wounded flesh, is the stuff out of which change explodes.

There is no greater insight into the future than recognizing...when we save our children, we save ourselves

In our contemporary world, no one can think or work with a single picture of what a family is. No one can fit all human behavior, all thought and feeling, into a single pattern.

Any town that doesn't have sidewalks doesn't love its children.

In this country, some people start being miserable about growing old while they are still young.

today's children are the first generation to grow up in a world that has the power to destroy itself.
