I have learned that when sadness comes to visit me, all I can do is say “I see you.” I spend some time with it, get up, and say goodbye. I don’t push it away, I own it. And because I own it, I let it go.

Don't try and do the right thing, because there is no right thing; there's just the right thing for you.
The toughest thing to do in politics is to do the right thing when your supporters think the right thing is something else.
