More quotes by Elizabeth Edwards
I'm actually one of those people who get up energetic in the morning.
Elizabeth Edwards
Those who need a champion cannot afford compromise, in the face of forces that are powerful, persistent and pernicious and greedy.
Elizabeth Edwards
It takes a lot of work to put together a marriage, to put together a family and a home.
Elizabeth Edwards
Resilience is accepting your new reality, even if it's less good than the one you had before. You can fight it, you can do nothing but scream about what you've lost, or you can accept that and try to put together something that's good.
Elizabeth Edwards
A positive attitude is not going to save you. What it's going to do is, everyday, between now and the day you die, whether that's a short time from now or a long time from now, that every day, you're going to actually live.
Elizabeth Edwards

If you know someone who has lost a child, and you're afraid to mention them because you think you might make them sad by reminding them that they died-you're not reminding them. They didn't forget they died. What you're reminding them of is that you remembered that they lived, and that is a great gift.
Elizabeth Edwards
Either you push forward with the things that you were doing yesterday or you start dying.
Elizabeth Edwards
The military is already sexually integrated.
Elizabeth Edwards
Cancer is not a straight line. It's up and down.
Elizabeth Edwards
You know, everybody knows some of what politicians say is malarkey, and having somebody there to call them on it is good. I'd be happy to do that any time and any place.
Elizabeth Edwards
We have a middle class that lives on a razor blade. So sometimes when you say poverty, you neglect a large portion of the population.
Elizabeth Edwards
Life is this great big blackboard, and on it you write all the things that you do.
Elizabeth Edwards
At the end of our lives, we will not be judged by the highest public office we attained in our lifetime, if that were true the current president (George W. Bush) would hold as much esteem as Franklin Roosevelt in our country, and Nelson Mandela in his. That cannot be the case. Rather, we will each be judged by the mark we've left on others.
Elizabeth Edwards
I hope I have important things to say.
Elizabeth Edwards
... all things are possible if you are willing to put yourself on the line. You cannot stand back and hope for the best. You have to act.
Elizabeth Edwards
