"An uncle of mine, who was a great guy, used to say to me when I was a kid: 'Joey, remember, you're defined by your courage, and you're redeemed by your loyalty.'"

"We don't have to accept the situation we cannot bear. We have the power to change it."

"A man I'm proud to call my friend. A man who will be the next President of the United States ' Barack America!"

"The bad news is, I'm not in the best shape. The good news is, I'm in better shape than Ted Kennedy was in when he endorsed me."
