Hillary Clinton

And I want to thank Bernie Sanders. Bernie, your campaign inspired millions of Americans, particularly the young people who threw their hearts and souls into our primary. You've put economic and social justice issues front and center, where they belong.

Our country's motto is e pluribus unum: out of many, we are one. Will we stay true to that motto?

And we'll build a path to citizenship for millions of immigrants who are already contributing to our economy!

I have to tell you, as your Secretary of State, I went to 112 countries, and when people hear those words, they hear America. So don't let anyone tell you that our country is weak. We're not. Don't let anyone tell you we don't have what it takes. We do.

It became clear to me that simply caring is not enough. To drive real progress, you have to change both hearts and laws. You need both understanding and action.

The truth is, through all these years of public service, the 'service' part has always come easier to me than the 'public' part.

You know, just to be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. They're racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic - you name it.

If you're not comfortable with public speaking - and nobody starts out comfortable; you have to learn how to be comfortable - practice. I cannot overstate the importance of practicing. Get some close friends or family members to help evaluate you, or somebody at work that you trust.

No matter what you think about the Iraq war, there is one thing we can all agree on for the next days - we have to salute the courage and bravery of those who are risking their lives to vote and those brave Iraqi and American soldiers fighting to protect their right to vote.

It's impossible to know what happens in the fog of war.

I learned some valuable lessons about the legislative process, the importance of bipartisan cooperation and the wisdom of taking small steps to get a big job done.

In too many instances, the march to globalization has also meant the marginalization of women and girls. And that must change.

Women are the largest untapped reservoir of talent in the world.

I believe that the rights of women and girls is the unfinished business of the 21st century.

There is a sense that things, if you keep positive and optimistic about what can be done, do work out.

If you believe you can make a difference, not just in politics, in public service, in advocacy around all these important issues, then you have to be prepared to accept that you are not going to get 100 percent approval.

We are still living with a double standard. I know it. Every woman I know knows it, whether you're in the media as a woman, or you're in the professions or business or politics.

I helped to restore America's leadership.

You cannot have maternal health without reproductive health. And reproductive health includes contraception and family planning and access to legal, safe abortion.

In the Bible it says they asked Jesus how many times you should forgive, and he said 70 times 7. Well, I want you all to know that I'm keeping a chart.

Forgiveness is a way of opening up the doors again and moving forward, whether it's a personal life or a national life.

I am 100% in the camp that says forgiveness is mostly about the forgiver.

America is stronger because of President Obama's leadership, and I'm better because of his friendship.

If I want to knock a story off the front page, I just change my hairstyle.

I'm undaunted in my quest to amuse myself by constantly changing my hair.

Cooking, decorating, diet/self-help and gardening books are guilty pleasures and useful time fillers.
