Real courage is holding on to a still voice in your head that says, 'I must keep going.' It's that voice that says nothing is a failure if it is not final. That voice that says to you, 'Get out of bed. Keep going. I will not quit.'
Cory Booker

More quotes by Cory Booker
Let your critics make you humble, and your enemies make you wise. Learn from every stumble but let nothing keep you down, for you were born to rise!
Cory Booker
When you have a president in his campaign who ran saying things that not are just contrary to a fact, but literally threatening to use presidential power in a way that would erode the rights and privileges and equality of large sections of Americans, God bless the protestors.
Cory Booker
I still have that new senator smell.
Cory Booker
Cynicism cripples our imagination and limits our ability to see faint possibilities amidst glaring problems.
Cory Booker
In life, it is never the big battle, the big moment, the big speech, the big election. That does not change things. What changes things is every day, getting up and rendering small acts of service and love beyond that what's expected of you or required of you.
Cory Booker
Dream big & have huge ambition, but never forget life is lived in small moments and sustained by simple acts of love.
Cory Booker
When happy, be kind. When angry, be kind. When hopeful, be kind. When discouraged, be kind. When ever, be kind.
Cory Booker
The more you limit your choices, thereby limiting thought, the more you can simplify your life and focus your energy elsewhere.
Cory Booker
Heroism is not fighting some big battle. It is not standing up to some fearsome foe ... Heroism is every day getting up with a mission to show this world that you are going to light it up with your spirit, to make the best out of yourself.
Cory Booker
We have had in our nation a well-celebrated Declaration of Independence. But our success as a country will depend upon a new 'Declaration of Inter-dependence.' A belief in how much we need each other, how much we share one common destiny.
Cory Booker
The change we seek for our nation is not the choice of an individual but must be the calling of a country.
Cory Booker
No matter what, we always have the power to choose hope over despair, engagement over apathy, kindness over indifference, love over hate.
Cory Booker
Before you speak to me about your religion, first show it to me in how you treat other people. Before you tell me how much you love your God, show me in how much you love all His children.
Cory Booker
One of the very hallmarks of our nation is the ideal of E Pluribus Unum. It is a concept that richly flows from the highest ideals of our nation.
Cory Booker
If Donald Trump governs the way he campaigned, it'll be a disastrous presidency. This is a chance for him to be magnanimous, humble. To work across the aisle. If that's the kind of president we have, that's fine. But if not, I want our DNC chair, I want Democratic senators and Congresspeople, citizens, we need to resist.
Cory Booker
You should be able to afford health care for your family. You should be able to retire with dignity and respect. And you should be able to give your children the kind of education that allows them to dream even bigger, go even farther and accomplish even more than you could ever imagine.
Cory Booker
Before you tell me what you teach and preach, show me how you live and give.
Cory Booker
If we cannot provide excellent educational opportunities to all children, safe communities, quality health coverage, or robust and fair avenues towards wealth creation, then our nation will increasingly be in peril.
Cory Booker
We need to be acting responsible as adults, and I don't endorse in any way the irresponsible use of marijuana. But I do believe we have come to a point in our society where we need to end prohibition. We need to have taxed, regulated marijuana within American communities.
Cory Booker
As I review the great history of our nation, community organizers have been at the center of so many of our great social movements.
