It was not lack of ability that limited my people, but lack of opportunity.

In my travels all over the world, I have come to realize that what distinguishes one child from another is not ability, but access. Access to education, access to opportunity, access to love.

Something comes along and you have to jump on and do it. You can't stop until it's done.

In the fields of opportunity it's plowing time again.

A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.

Difficulties mastered are opportunities won.
