Do ballet and play football. Sing and dance. Laugh and cry.

I just try to walk the walk. I try to live every day with the utmost honesty and integrity to myself and the people around me.

We must change the culture of politics first.

I am deeply inspired by the courage and achievements of young people who didn't have the safety nets I had growing up.

I will go to my grave wishing that I did more. Wishing that I didn't sleep as much. Wishing that I didn't waste so much time. Wishing that I fought harder.

I believe that it is my job to fight for the rights of others to have the same rights that I take for granted. As a white, American male, I have had it quite good. I recognize that and fight every day for everyone to have the same opportunities that I have had.

My grandmother taught me two very important lessons before she passed: hold the door for everyone and always say "thank you." That means to treat everyone the same, no matter if it is the President or a homeless mother begging for food. And never forget to thank those who have helped you, whether it is the person serving you food at a restaurant or your third-grade teacher who taught you the multiplication tables.
