Share our similarities, celebrate our differences.

I think the important thing now is to have a celebration and then with determination move into our common, shared, different future.

It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences.

What we have to do... is to find a way to celebrate our diversity and debate our differences without fracturing our communities.

It's so much easier to complain about something than celebrate it.

For too long, we have focused on our differences - in our politics and backgrounds, in our race and beliefs - rather than cherishing the unity and pride that binds us together.

Our goal should be to understand our differences.

We are a diverse country, but we are one country. And we are at our best when we come together as Americans, not despite our differences, but in celebration of them.

We are increasingly recognising and accepting, respecting and celebrating, our cultural diversity.

So, yes, we do celebrate America today because the majority will stand up and empower the American people to live that American Dream and to be part of making a better, freer, and safer world.
