Some People Think Elections Are A Game: Who's Up Or Who's Down. It's About Our Country. It's About Our Kids' Future. It's About All Of Us Together. Some Of Us Put Ourselves Out There And Do This Against Some Difficult Odds. We Do It, Each One Of Us, Against Difficult Odds. We Do It Because We Care About Our Country. Some Of Us Are Right, And Some Of Us Are Not. Some Of Us Are Ready, And Some Of Us Are Not. Some Of Us Know What We Will Do On Day One, And Some Of Us Haven't Thought That Through.

Learn From Your Mistakes, Trying To Figure Out What The Best Way To Go Forward Is.

I Think Science Is Real.

I Meet People Who Can't Get Healthcare For Their Families, People Who Are Just Distressed Over What Is Happening In Our Country. So When Somebody Asks Me, "how Do You Get Up?" It Really Triggered In Me The Feeling That That's What I Want Us All To Think About Each Other. How Do We Get Up? How Do We Pull On Our Shoes, Go Out And Deal With The Problems America Faces. That's What I Intend To Do As President.

We Should Remember That Just As A Positive Outlook On Life Can Promote Good Health, So Can Everyday Acts Of Kindness.

That Is The Number-one Threat We Face In The World. And It Becomes Particularly Threatening If Terrorists Ever Get Their Hands On Any Nuclear Material.

I've Never Understood Multi-party Democracy. It's Hard Enough With Two Parties.

My Two Secrets To Staying Healthy: Wash Your Hands All The Time. And, If You Can't, Use Purell Or One Of The Sanitizers. And The Other Is Hot Peppers. I Eat A Lot Of Hot Peppers. I For Some Reason Started Doing That In 1992, And I Swear By It.

I Don't Want To Rip Families Apart. I Don't Want To Be Sending Parents Away From Children.

Everything I Did As Secretary Of State Was In Furtherance Of America's Interests And Our Values.

We Have To Make The Economy Fairer. That Starts With Raising The National Minimum Wage And Also Guarantee, Finally, Equal Pay For Women's Work.

When I Think About What We Need To Do, We Have 33,000 People A Year Who Die From Guns. I Think We Need Comprehensive Background Checks, Need To Close The Online Loophole, Close The Gun Show Loophole. There's Other Matters That I Think Are Sensible That Are The Kind Of Reforms That Would Make A Difference That Are Not In Any Way Conflicting With The Second Amendment.

Everybody In The Government With Whom I Emailed Knew That I Was Using A Personal Email, And I Have Said It Would Have Been A Better Choice To Have Had Two Separate Email Accounts. And I've Also Tried To Not Only Take Responsibility, Because It Was My Decision, But To Be As Transparent As Possible.

We Saw More Evidence That [doanld Trump] Is Temperamentally Unfit And Totally Unqualified To Be Commander-in-chief. He Trash-talked American Generals, Saying They Had Been, Quote, "reduced To Rubble," That's How He Talks About Distinguished Men And Women Who Have Spent Their Lives Serving Our Country, Sacrificing For Us. That's How He Would Act As Commander-in-chief.

I Don't Think It Was Progressive To Vote To Give Gun Makers And Sellers Immunity. I Don't Think It Was Progressive To Vote Against Ted Kennedy's Immigration Reform.

I Can`t Think Of An Election That Is More Important, Certainly In My Lifetime.

I'm Not Going To Let The Government Make A Profit Out Of Lending Money For People To Go To College. So We're Going To Really Change This. I See It As An Investment, Not An Expense, And I'm Going To Treat It That Way.

Every Call You Make, Every Door You Knock, Every Friend You Register To Vote Could Make The Difference.

Dignity Does Not Come From Avenging Insults, Especially From Violence That Can Never Be Justified. It Comes From Taking Responsibility And Advancing Our Common Humanity.

[muammar] Gaddafi Probably Had More Blood On His Hands Of Americans Than Anybody Else.

Individual Consciences Are Fine But Individual Consciences Have To Be Made Manifest.

My Opponent Misses Something Important. When We Say America Is Exceptional, It Doesn`t Mean That People From Other Places Don`t Feel Deep National Pride, Just Like We Do. It Means That We Recognize America`s Unique And Unparalleled Ability To Be A Force For Peace And Progress.

If You're A Realist, You Know That People Have Different Roles To Play In Politics, Economics, And This Is An Important Role, But I Do Think That There Has To Be An Understanding Of How What Happens Here On Wall Street Has Such Broad Consequences Not Just For The Domestic But The Global Economy, So More Thought Has To Be Given To The Process And Transactions And Regulations So That We Don't Kill Or Maim What Works, But We Concentrate On The Most Effective Way Of Moving Forward With The Brainpower And The Financial Power That Exists Here.

I Trust Voters. Voters Decide On Whatever Basis They Think Is Important To Them. I Just Want Them To Have A Full Range Of Information To Make That Decision.

Freedom Is Never Granted. It Is Earned By Each Generation... In The Face Of Tyranny, Cruelty, Oppression, Extremism, Sometimes There Is Only One Choice. When The World Looks To America, America Looks To You, And You Never Let Her Down.

We Need To Have Strong Growth, Fair Growth, Sustained Growth.

We Have Health Insurance Companies Playing A Major Role In The Provision Of Healthcare, Both To The Employed Whose Employers Provide Health Insurance, And To Those Who Are Working But On Their Own Are Not Able To Afford It And Their Employers Either Don't Provide It, Or Don't Provide It At An Affordable Price. We Are Still Struggling. We've Made A Lot Of Progress. Ten Million Americans Now Have Insurance Who Didn't Have It Before The Affordable Care Act, And That Is A Great Step Forward.

The People Of New York Took A Big Chance On Me. And I'm Well Aware Of That.

It Is Hard Sometimes To Get The Congress To Do What You Want To Do And You Have To Keep Working At It.

I Was Against It [trans-pacific Partnership] Once , It Was Finally Negotiated And The Terms Were Laid Out.

Using That Kind Of Scare Rhetoric Is Just Terribly Unfortunate. You [donald Trump] Should Meet With Some Of The Women That I Have Met With, Women I Have Known Over The Course Of My Life. This Is One Of The Worst Possible Choices That Any Woman And Her Family Has To Make.

Don't Let Life Pass You By Before You Realise That It Was Worth Living.

Raising The Federal Minimum Wage Won't Just Put More Money In The Pocket Of Low-income Families - It Also Means They Spend More Money At The Businesses In Their Neighborhoods. [donald] Trump's Against That As Well.

The Present System Is Unsustainable. The Only Question Is Whether We Will Master The Change Or It Will Master Us.

No Nation Can Meet The World's Challenges Alone.

It Does Not Matter What Country We Live In, Who Our Leaders Are, Or Even Who We Are. Because We Are Human, We Therefore Have Rights. And Because We Have Rights, Governments Are Bound To Protect Them.

I Have Never Lost Faith In America's Essential Goodness And Greatness.

I Have Long Been In Favor Of States And Cities Within States Making Up Their Own Minds Whether Or Not They Want To Permit Fracking. I Have Been Supportive Of That.

I Think Part Of Our Problem Right Now In The Country Is That People Feel That Nobody Listens To Them. And That Means That They Just Don't Trust Anybody In Government, Anybody In Politics, And Anybody In The Economy.

And Not Go To Things That Sound Good That Really Did Not Have The Kind Of Impact That We Would Want. Who Disagrees With Keeping Neighborhoods Safe?

I've Always Thought That The Role Of Citizen, The Role Of Advocate, Were As Important In Our Democracy As Running For Office.

Millennium Trails Will Be Very Tangible Gifts To The Future. We Will Walk On Them And Hike On Them And Bike On Them. They Will Be Accessible To People Of All Ages And Abilities. But In A Very Important Way They Represent More Than The Tangible Effect Of The Trail. They Represent A Commitment And An Investment In What Kind Of Country We Want In The Next Century.

Well, I'm Just Quoting You When You [donald Trump] Were Asked About A Potential Nuclear Competition In Asia, You Said, You Know, Go Ahead, Enjoy Yourselves, Folks.

With Less Competition, Corporations Can Use Their Power To Raise Prices, Limit Choice For Consumers, Cut Wages For Workers, Crowd Out Start-ups And Small Businesses.

Giving Every Child A Chance To Reach Their Full Potential Is The Best Work Anyone Can Do

The Patterns Have Become Unmistakable And Undeniable. ... We Have To Come To Terms With Some Hard Truths About Race And Justice In America.

I Am Very Comfortable Saying What I Believe I Can Do, Being Very Specific About How We Will Do It, How We Will Pay For It, And Having People Know That I Want Them To Hold Me Accountable.

When I Left The Secretary Of State Office, I Had A 69% Approval Rating. Once I Start Running For Office And All The Incoming You Know Is Battering Away, People Are Going To Say, "hey, Wait A Minute - What's That Mean, What's That Mean?" I Get All Of That, But I Don't Think We Do Any Service To Our Country Or The Voters If We Descend Into The Kind Of Insult Fest That He Seems To Relish.

I Don't Want People Who Just Tell Me What They Think I Want To Hear, Because That Doesn't Do Me Any Good.

I Hope Donald Trump Will Be A Successful President.

I Feel Like My Political Beliefs Are Rooted In The Conservatism That I Was Raised With.

The Word Gap Leads To An Achievement Gap And Has Life-long Consequences

Donald Trump Abuses His Power, Games The System, Puts His Own Interests Ahead Of The Country's.

We Have An Architect In The Audience Who Designed One Of Clubhouses At One Of The Golf Courses. It's A Beautiful Facility. It Immediately Was Put To Use. And Donald Trump Wouldn't Pay What The Man Needed To Be Paid.

I Am Laying Out A Specific Agenda That Will Make More Progress, Get More Jobs With Rising Incomes, Get Us To Universal Health Care Coverage, Get Us To Universal Pre-k, Paid Family Leave And The Other Elements Of What I Think Will Build A Strong Economy, That Will Ensure Americans Keep Making Progress. That's What I'm Offering And That's What I Will Do As President.

You Know, We've Been Married For 22 Years ... And I Have Learned A Long Time Ago That The Only People Who Count In Any Marriage Are The Two That Are In It.

I Have Generally Not Responded To Sexism If It's About Me. And I Have Responded If It's About Somebody Else, Because If Women In General Are Being Degraded, Are Being Dismissed, Then I Can Respond In A Way That Demonstrates I'm Not Taking It Personally But I'm Really Serious About Rejecting That Kind Of Behavior.

I Wanna Be A President For Everyone In America. That's My Goal, This What I Will Do, That's What I've Done In My Past.

When I Talk About How We're Going To Pay For Education, How We're Going To Invest In Infrastructure, How We're Going To Get The Cost Of Prescription Drugs Down, And A Lot Of The Other Issues That People Talk To Me About All The Time, I've Made It Very Clear We Are Going Where The Money Is. We Are Going To Ask The Wealthy And Corporations To Pay Their Fair Share.

I Wanted To Work On Policy Because I Think It Really Makes A Difference.

Making A Difference

If I'm Not Mistaken, That Relationship [of Barack Obama] With Mr.[bill] Ayers On This Board Continued After 9/11 And After His Reported Comments, Which Were Deeply Hurtful To People In New York And, I Would Hope, To Every American, Because They Were Published On 9/11, And He Said That He Was Just Sorry They Hadn't Done More.

When Does Life Start? When Does It End? Who Makes These Decisions?... Every Day, In Hospitals And Homes And Hospices... People Are Struggling With Those Profound Issues.

At The Risk Of Appearing Predictable, The Bible Was And Remains The Biggest Influence On My Thinking. I Was Raised Reading It, Memorizing Passages From It And Being Guided By It. I Still Find It A Source Of Wisdom, Comfort And Encouragement.

I Am Not Somebody Who Just Says Let's Beat Up On The Bad Guys. No. I Want To Summon The Good Guys And Give People The Incentives And Opportunities To Actually Grow This Economy, Put More People To Work, Get The Middle Class Really Feeling Like They're Back In Business.

I Think If You Come From Where I Came From And Where I Have Always Been, I've Always Been Reaching Out And Whether It's Talking With Our Neighbors Or Going Shopping Or Standing, Talking To People In These Bookstores And Hearing What's On Their Minds, Or Even The Work I Did For Eight Years As A Senator To Bring New Jobs To New York And Stand Up For The People I Represented.

We Have To Make It Easier To Be Good Workers, Good Parents And Good Caregivers All At The Same Time. That's Why I've Set Out A Bold Vision To Make Quality, Affordable Child Care Available To All Americans And Limit The Cost To 10 Percent Of Family Income.

Don't Confuse Having A Career With Having A Life.

A Vote In 2002 Is Not A Plan To Defeat Isis.

I'm Not Going To Put My Lot In With Economists, Because I Know If We Get It Right, If We Actually Did It Right, If We Had A President Who Used All The Tools Of The Presidency, We Would Design It In Such A Way That It Would Be Implemented Effectively.

If You Look At Countries That Are Comparable, Like Switzerland Or Germany, For Example, They Have Mixed Systems. They Don't Have Just A Single-payer System, But They Have Very Clear Controls Over Budgeting And Accountability.

If We Have A Democratic Senate I Think The Republican Party Will Wake Up To The Reality That Their Opposition To Comprehensive Immigration Reform With A Path To Citizenship Is A Losing Proposition. That Donald Trump's Inflammatory Rhetoric And Derogatory Comments Do Not Really Work In A National Election. And I Think We'll Have A Better Chance To Actually Get Something Done.

Women Are The Largest Untapped Reservoir Of Talent In The World.

Simply Put, We Have To Be Smart About How We Use Our Power. Not Because We Have Less Of It Indeed, The Might Of Our Military, The Size Of Our Economy, The Influence Of Our Diplomacy, And The Creative Energy Of Our People Remain Unrivaled. No, It's Because As The World Has Changed, So Too Have The Levers Of Power That Can Most Effectively Shape International Affairs.

We Also Have To Look At How We Help Families Balance The Responsibilities At Home And The Responsibilities At Business.

Throughout The 1980s, We Did Hear Too Much About Individual Gain And The Ethos Of Selfishness And Greed. We Did Not Hear Enough About How To Be A Good Member Of A Community, To Define The Common Good And To Repair The Social Contract. And We Also Found That While Prosperity Does Not Trickle Down From The Most Powerful To The Rest Of Us, All Too Often Indifference And Even Intolerance Do.

You Just Have To Sort Of Figure Out How To - Getting Back To That Word, "balance" - How To Balance The Public And The Private Efforts That Are Necessary To Be Successful, Politically, And That's Not Just A Comment About Today. That, I Think, Has Probably Been True For All Of Our History.

Donald Trump Is Not A Normal Presidential Candidate.

I See No Conflict Between Saving People's Lives And Defending The Second Amendment.

Second Amendment

We Need Steady Hands, Not A President Who Says He's Neutral On Monday, Pro-israel On Tuesday, And Who Knows What On Wednesday, Because Everything's Negotiable.

I've Been Really At The Highest Levels Of American Political Life.

I Wouldn't Take Up Arms. I Think That Might Be A Little Extreme.

We Can't Be Fighting The Last War. We Have To Be Preparing To Fight The New War.

In This World And The World Of Tomorrow, We Must Go Forward Together Or Not At All.

I Really Feel Strongly That We Can Make Change For Every Person. And It Will Be Radical In The Person's Life.

When I Was Secretary Of State, I Had To Be Responsible For Getting A Nuclear Arms Reduction Treaty With Russia Through The Senate. We Needed, I Think, 13 Republican Votes To Get To 67. I Started Working In The Summer Making Just Endless Phone Calls, Meetings, Bringing Experts To Talk To Republicans, And Then We Finally Got It Done At The End Of The Year 2010. So I'm Excited To Roll Up My Sleeves And Get Into The Business Of Solving Problems And Making Progress Together.

There's No Day That Is The Same As The Day Before. So You Have To Be Energized; You Have To Be Focused.

A Man Who Can Be Provoked By A Tweet Should Not Have His Fingers Anywhere Near The Nuclear Codes.

I Understand It. People Are Very Willing To Say Things About Me, To Make Accusations About Me That Are - I Don't Get Upset About Them Anymore, But They Are Very Regrettable.

One Of The Problems, Frankly, The Republicans Seem To Have Had Is They Don't Like His [donald Trump] Personality, His Tactics, But They Basically Agree With Him On So Many Of The Issues.

I Will Fight Against The Division Politics Of Revenge And Retribution. If You Put Me To Work For You, I Will Work To Lift People Up, Not Put Them Down.

I Think I've Been Very Consistent In My Values.

We've Got To Keep Fighting, And I Will Defeat Isis.

I'm A Proud Product Of The American Middle Class.
