“The truly revolutionary promise of our nation's founding document is the freedom to pursue happiness-with-a-capital-H. ”

“Each of us deserves the freedom to pursue our own version of happiness. No one deserves to be bullied.”

“Once more I realized to what an extent earthly happiness is made to the measure of man. It is not a rare bird which we must pursue at one moment in heaven, at the next in our minds. Happiness is a domestic bird found in our own courtyards.”

“We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.”

“When we truly discover how to love our neighbor as our self, Capitalism will not be possible and Marxism will not be necessary.”

“How can you tell somebody who is pursuing happiness that they're somehow not American when that was the very first promise that America made?”
