Graduation

Marian Wright Edelman

It was very clear to me in 1965, in Mississippi, that, as a lawyer, I could get people into schools, desegregate the schools, but if they were kicked off the plantations - and if they didn't have food, didn't have jobs, didn't have health care, didn't have the means to exercise those civil rights, we were not going to have success.

Food

Marian Wright Edelman

A nation that does not stand for its children does not stand for anything and will not stand tall in the future.

Future

Marian Wright Edelman

No person has the right to rain on your dreams.
