"But understand this is not the end. This is just the beginning. Together you and I, all of us, we can make sure that America's better days are ahead of us."

"I think it's overwhelming. I think he's in touch with the people, his humanity. People realize that and they celebrate that and that's why they celebrate him."

"Our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interest and putting off unpleasant decisions, that time has surely passed."

"We will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist."
