I emphasize self-esteem, self-confidence, and dignity, not as an ideal, but as a real test of community organization. Without leadership development, community organizations do not have staying power.

Never separate the life you live from the words you speak.

Politics is not about winning for the sake of winning.

When too many Americans don't vote or participate, some see apathy and despair. I see disappointment and even outrage. And I believe that out of this frustration can come hope and action.

What makes community organizing especially attractive is the faith it places in the ability of the poor to make decisions for themselves.

We all do better when we all do better.

As free citizens in a political democracy, we have a responsibility to be interested and involved in the affairs of the human community, be it at the local or the global level.

It is the belief that extremes and excesses of inequality must be reduced so that each person is free to fully develop his or her full potential. This is why we take precious time out of our lives and give it to politics.

The American polity is infected with a serious imbalance of power between elites and masses, a power which is the principal threat to our democracy.

I'm short, I'm Jewish and I'm a liberal.
