Elections have consequences. So many people want to complain, but they don’t want to vote. We can talk about Hillary Clinton. We can celebrate her; we can support her, but if we don’t come out and vote for her, for shame. – Cory Booker
It’s incredibly flattering to be a U.S. senator, which I want to stay at for a long time. – Cory Booker
We need to look at the totality of the things that we’re labeling as violent and really examine whether we need to have some more proportionality in terms of the punishment fitting the crime that’s done. The bright line that we have right now, between violent and nonviolent, does not account for shades of gray. – Cory Booker
I’m going to have setbacks and failures; I’m not going to see change right away all of the time or most of the time. But everybody I’ve ever respected has failed at one thing or another. I’ve definitely fallen on my face. But I’ve also had a comparatively easy life. – Cory Booker
Tolerance says I am just going to stomach your right to be different. That if you disappear from the face of the earth, I am no better or worse off. But love – love knows that every American has worth and value, no matter what their background, race, religion, or sexual orientation. – Cory Booker
Athletes are still exploited. If they blow out their knee, if they somehow don’t meet the mandates of a coach, they lose their scholarship. They don’t get their degree. – Cory Booker
