298 Quotes by Cory Booker

Go out there and swear to this world your oath, not with your words, but with what you do. Not with your hand over your heart, but with your hand outstretched to a world that desperately needs your hand, your help, your insights, your creativity, your honor, your courage. It needs you.

May we help more than we hurt, may we seek to understand more than be understood and may we love more than we judge.

What more could you ask for in life than to be given an impossible challenge?

Give the respect you want to receive; embody the grace you hope to encounter; and help others with no expectations whatsoever.

Life is about where you are right now, and the choices you make.

Greatness is helping others realize they are great, beautiful and capable. Genius is seeing the wonder and possibility in those others ignore.

Before you tell me what you teach and preach, show me how you live and give.

Real courage is holding on to a still voice in your head that says, 'I must keep going.' It's that voice that says nothing is a failure if it is not final. That voice that says to you, 'Get out of bed. Keep going. I will not quit.'

Courage has you say in a defiant spirit you can take everything from me, you could cut me deep, you could render me in shame but you will never ever stop me from loving those who mock me, from loving those that hate me, from loving those who don't forgive me, from loving the cynics, from loving the darkness so much that I myself through my small acts of consistent unyielding love may bring on the light.
