Every day I feel is a blessing from God. And I consider it a new beginning. Yeah, everything is beautiful.

As I stand here today, having taken the solemn oath of office in the presence of my fellow countrymen - in the presence of our God - I know that it is America's purpose that we shall not fail.

I cannot express what I felt, but I knew at that moment that God's presence had never left me, that He had been with me there in solitary.

I have a dogmatic certainty: God is in every person's life. God is in everyone's life. Even if the life of a person has been a disaster, even if it is destroyed by vices, drugs or anything else - God is in this person's life. You can - you must - try to seek God in every human life.

Real prayer is union with God.

God didn't call me to be successful, He called me to be faithful.
