Quotes By Hillary Clinton
"We are a country where people of all backgrounds, all nations of origin, all languages, all religions, all races, can make a home. America was built by immigrants."

"Now, I have always believed that women are not victims; we are agents of change, we are drivers of progress, we are makers of peace - all we need is a fighting chance."
"You know, everybody has setbacks in their life, and everybody falls short of whatever goals they might set for themselves. That's part of living and coming to terms with who you are as a person."
"Freedom means the right of people to assemble, organize, and debate openly."
"Gay rights are human rights."
"We have to knock down the barriers erected by greed, special interests, powerful forces."
