We are free, but not to be evil, not to be indifferent to human suffering, not to profit from the people, from the work created and sustained through their spirit of political association, while refusing to contribute to the political state that we profit from.

The wretch who lives without freedom feels like dressing in the mud from the streets Those who have you, o Liberty, do not know. you. Those who do not have you should not speak of you, but win you.

Freedoms, like privileges, prevail or are imperiled together You cannot harm or strive to achieve one without harming or furthering all.

It is a sin not to do what one is capable of doing.

Joy comes from places you least expect it. It's usually the simple things, like watching my son play basketball or going through Central Park when the blossoms are blooming.

Action may not bring happiness but there is no happiness without action.

The emotional power of creating something... Nothing gives me as much joy as that.

I want ordinary people to enjoy a decent standard of living, with ever increasing security, comfort and joy.
