Quotes by the late Senator Paul Wellstone

We all do better when we all do better.

The future will not belong to those on the sidelines. The future will not belong to the cynics. The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.

Above and beyond the question of how to grow the economy is a legitimate concern of how to grow the quality of our lives.


Successful organizing is not built on self-interest but rather on dignity and a sense of purpose.
