Great rewards will come to those who can live together, learn together, work together, forge new ties that bind together.
The best example of all, to me, that our problems are both personal and cultural and political and social is the whole condition of the middle class economically.
You cannot have an integrated world and have your say all the time. America can lead the world towards that, but we cannot dominate and run the world in that direction. There is a big difference.
Being gay, the last time I looked, had nothing to do with reading a balance book, fixing a broken bone or changing a spark plug.
We need to be creating a world that we would like to live in when we're not the biggest power on the block.
Behind every great man there stands a great woman. Behind every great woman is a great behind.
I think it's very important, and I think that what young people will learn from my experience is that even presidents have to do that and there are consequences when you don't.

The world economy, the world environment, the world AIDS crisis, the world arms race: they affect us all.
No one can change yesterday, but we can all change tomorrow.
