“Above all, what you have as young people that's vitally needed to make social change, is impatience. You want it to happen now. There have to be enough people that say, "We want it now, in our lifetime. " We want to see apartheid in South Africa come down right now. We want to see the war in Central America stop right now. We want the CIA off our campus right now. We want an end to sexual harassment in our communities right now. Be adventurists in the sense of being bold and daring. Be opportunists and seize this opportunity, this moment in history, to go out and save our country. It's your turn now.”
“I just know that right now, we want to be proud. For once. We want to take the struggle and rise above it. We want to frame it, live it, survive it. We want to put it in our mouths and taste it and never forget it, because it makes us strong.”
“It said thata we have now-right now- and that's it. We have no promises for tomorrow, only right now and we had to seize the day, the hour, the moment”
“I want you to notice that right now, this instant, we are having a conversation. It’s really not hard, now, is it? Think you we can carry this on for the rest of the day? (Callie)”
“Right now we have this. Right now, this moment, we have this walk, this night, you and your arm around me.”
“The fate of our country is now in the hands of people who don't think about what they want until they get right up to the register at McDonald's.”
