dream big, but dream dreams that they can work on every day until they accomplish
them-not because they were chosen by a black-box process, but because
they worked hard enough to reach them.
I'm working on new techniques. I'm trying to find a way to make fresco that can be detached from a wall, and I'm trying to find new people who can help me work on a very large scale in bronze.

My greatest hope is to be able to pass the same dreams and hopes and vision that I've been able to enjoy in my life, on to the next generation.

There are too many children in this country for whom the American dream is so distant and the odds against them are so daunting.
[...] we must start by inspiring our children with a sense of purpose...by nurturing their imagination so that they may dream big and then work hard to reach those dreams.

Most poor people are not on welfare. . . I know they work. I'm a witness. They catch the early bus. They work every day. They raise other people's children. They work every day.

They work every day . . .

The United States remains the last best hope for a mankind plagued by tyranny and deprivation. America is no stronger than its people -- and that means you and me.

And to our children and our children's children, we can say, "We did all what could be done in the brief time that was given us here on earth.".

That is the goodness of our country. That is the essence of the American dream.
