I'm fascinated by rap and by hip-hop. I think there's a lot of poetry in it. There's a lot of anger, a lot of social energy in it. And I think you'd better listen to it pretty carefully, 'cause it's important.
John F. Kerry
Gender based violence anywhere is a threat to peace and security everywhere.
John F. Kerry

Just the fact that we can't pass budgets in our Congress, just the fact that we are gridlocked in our own democracy, the fact that everybody who travels can see that we're not investing in our airports, in our rail, in our infrastructure and so forth, people are noticing a United States that is not getting the job done in some ways.

John F. Kerry
That's what I am standing up for - Israel's future as a Jewish and democratic state living side-by-side in peace and security with its neighbors.
John F. Kerry
As a public person, I've always tried to reflect what is embodied in our defining ideals as a nation about equality and fairness and justice and so forth.
John F. Kerry
We spent a fair amount of time on Ukraine. And I think there's a path that we discussed that we will follow up on in order to try to resolve some of the outstanding issues in order to fully implement Minsk.
John F. Kerry
There are issues of war and peace. And then, there are issues of life and death like this one that are no less morally compelling than war itself.
John F. Kerry
If you don't have two states, you have one state, already the non-Jewish population outnumbers the Jewish population in one state.
John F. Kerry
President Clinton was often known as the first black president. I wouldn't be upset if I could earn the right to be the second.
John F. Kerry
We need to guarantee equal rights and civil rights and say that, here in America, workers have the right to organize - women have the right to choose - and justice belongs to everyone regardless of race or gender or sexual orientation.
John F. Kerry
I don't want to claim that God is on our side. As Abraham Lincoln told us, I want to pray humbly that we are on God's side.
John F. Kerry
I do think that it's really important for leaders of countries to be very clear and careful in the statements they make because their words are weighed extremely carefully by other countries, and you have to create a continuity of seriousness and of credibility in order to be able to be taken seriously and get things done.
