"We cannot give up, we cannot give in. We are powerful. That doesn't mean everything turns out well immediately. Our expectations can't be so superficial. We have to carry with us a belief in the future and understand our roles. Whose shoulders do you stand on? What did you ancestors do to get you to this point in your life? Who has reached out and lifted you up? You now must be the shoulders for the future. We must now be the shoulders on which others will stand."

"Each of us has to build for a future, and be the foundation for a future, whether or not we, individually, will get there. It does not matter how bad it gets; it matters where my faith gives me the strength to keep understanding there will be others who need me to not give up, not give in—despair is not a strategy—and to keep building for the future."
