“Fight one more round. When your feet are so tired that you have to shuffle back to the centre of the ring, fight one more round. When your arms are so tired that you can hardly lift your hands to come on guard, fight one more round. When your nose is bleeding and your eyes are black and you are so tired you wish your opponent would crack you one on the jaw and put you to sleep, fight one more round – remembering that the man who always fights one more round is never whipped.”

“Dalam menjalani hidup ini, Nak, adakalanya kau akan sampai di jalan yang bercabang atau bersimpang. Bila demikian, jangan ragu-ragu memilih cabang atau simpang yang kelihatannya kurang atau jarang ditempuh orang." "Bagaimana kalau nanti kita tersesat?" tanyaku. "Kalau kita tersesat bukan berarti kita akan hilang dalam perjalanan", jawab emak. "Maka jangan ragu-ragu mengambil jalan yang tidak umum. Hasilnya bisa cukup memuaskan ... contohnya lihat apa yang kau alami sekarang. Setelah orang-orang melihat hasil ini, lama-lama mereka akan mengikuti langkahmu dan jalan ini lalu menjadi jalan orang banyak. Tapi kau tetap yang memulai, yang merintis. Ini berlaku baik dalam arti harfiah maupun secara kiasan.”

“Hay días en que pienso que ser de izquierdas es una especie de facultad, como la memoria. Todos la tenemos en estado de latencia. Si no la usas nunca, te mueres sin enterarte de que la tenías. La prueba de que está ahí, sin embargo, es que en determinadas situaciones aparece. Muchas veces se confunde con el orgullo. Pero hay dos clases de orgullo. Para mí, cuando esa facultad no está involucrada el orgullo es puro amor propio. Y cuando el orgullo es amor propio, lo que sale es la pataleta, el sofocón, se pone la cara roja y falta el aire. En cambio, si esa facultad interviene el orgullo se generaliza. La persona comprende que la ofensa, el abuso, lo que sea, no se lo están haciendo sólo a ella; y se le llenan los pulmones de aire; dice «no puede ser» y las tres palabras vienen de muy lejos, de muchos compañeros caídos y compañeras, de muchas personas aplastadas, humilladas; y aflora en ella un valor, una determinación con los que no soñaba.”

“Pick a leader who will keep jobs in your country by offering companies incentives to hire only within their borders, not one who allows corporations to outsource jobs for cheaper labor when there is a national employment crisis. Choose a leader who will invest in building bridges, not walls. Books, not weapons. Morality, not corruption. Intellectualism and wisdom, not ignorance. Stability, not fear and terror. Peace, not chaos. Love, not hate. Convergence, not segregation. Tolerance, not discrimination. Fairness, not hypocrisy. Substance, not superficiality. Character, not immaturity. Transparency, not secrecy. Justice, not lawlessness. Environmental improvement and preservation, not destruction. Truth, not lies.”
