You don’t have to set limits on your talent and your ambition – or those of your children. You don’t have to be grateful to survive in a world made by others.

We’re going to be campaigning on issues of social justice and poverty, you will be seeing a lot of me.

It’s been fascinating – and exhilarating – watching this movement mushroom over the last few weeks, this campaign is about spreading a message of hope and change based on the central choice – five years or more of continued austerity, or a plan for investment and growth that stands up for the majority.

I seemed to be in a minority on every subject. Every argument that came up, every debate that came up, I was in a minority of one usually, sometimes two. That was quite character forming.

United we stand, divided we fall is one of the oldest and truest slogans of the Labour movement.

Of course we as Labour Party members must all be free to criticise and oppose injustice and abuse wherever we find it. But as today’s Report recommends, can we please leave Hitler and Nazi metaphors alone (especially in the context of Israel). Why? Because the Shoah is still in people’s family experience.

The ‘corporatization of America’ during the past century [has been] an attack on democracy.

The chief evil is unlimited government…nobody is qualified to wield unlimited power.

As in the past, the costs and risks of the coming phases of the industrial economy were to be socialized, with eventual profits privatized …

One has to be insincere and promise something which you cannot fulfill. So you either have to be a fool who does not understand what you are promising, or deliberately be lying.

Well, if I ever ran for office, I’d do better as a Democrat than as a Republican – and that’s not because I’d be more liberal, because I’m conservative. But the working guy would elect me. He likes me. When I walk down the street, those cabbies start yelling out their windows.

Russia and China are very natural partners. We are neighbors with an immense common border.

The NRA have great power over you people. They have less power over me. I don’t need it. What do I need? But I’ll tell you, they are well-meaning

People tend to rally around power.

I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose voters.

[on the 2016 election] When the most qualified person running was a woman, and look what we did instead, I mean that says something about where we are. That’s what we have to explore, because if we as women are still suspicious of one another, if we still have this crazy, crazy bar for each other that we don’t have for men… if we’re not comfortable with the notion that a woman could be our president compared to… what, then we have to have those conversations with ourselves as women.

Many people would like to see Nigel Farage represent Great Britain as their Ambassador to the United States. He would do a great job!

We will not allow the past to drag us down and stop us from moving ahead. We understand where we should move.

I would have set out very quickly the relationship with Europe.

The revolution does not need historians.

Bolivia is a striking example. The mostly white, Europeanized elite, which is a minority, happens to be sitting on most of the hydrocarbon reserves. For the first time Bolivia is becoming democratic. So it’s therefore bitterly hated by the West, which despises democracy, because it’s much too dangerous.
