- Change theme
Quotes by Paul Wellstone
- I don't think politics has anything to do with left, right, or center. It has to do with trying to do right by people.
- I emphasize self-esteem, self-confidence, and dignity, not as an ideal, but as a real test of community organization. Without leadership development, community organizations do not have staying power.
- I saw as a teacher how, if you take that spark of learning that those children have, and you ignite it, you can take a child from any background to a lifetime of creativity and accomplishment.
- I think the future also will not belong to those who are cynical or those who stand on the sidelines.
- If a teacher does not involve himself, his values, his commitments, in the course of discussion, why should the students?
- It is the belief that extremes and excesses of inequality must be reduced so that each person is free to fully develop his or her full potential. This is why we take precious time out of our lives and give it to politics.
