Education is for improving the lives of others and for leaving your community and world better than you found it.
From Marian Wright Edelman
Hunger and malnutrition have devastating consequences for children and have been linked to low birth weight and birth defects, obesity, mental and physical health problems, and poorer educational outcomes.
Family and moral values are so central to everything that I am.
To all those mothers and fathers who are struggling with teen-agers, I say, just be patient: even though it looks like you can't do anything right for a number of years, parents become popular again when kids reach 20.
The future which we hold in trust for our own children will be shaped by our fairness to other people's children.
Service is the rent we pay for being. It is the very purpose of life, and not something you do in your spare time.
You didn't have a choice about the parents you inherited, but you do have a choice about the kind of parent you will be.
You really can change the world if you care enough.
The challenge of social justice is to evoke a sense of community that we need to make our nation a better place, just as we make it a safer place.
Don't feel entitled to anything you didn't sweat and struggle for.
