Hillary Clinton 🇺🇸

"This is a mindset. This is how Donald thinks."

"We've had free and fair elections."

"There was even a time when he didn't get an Emmy for his TV program three years in a row and he started tweeting that the Emmys were rigged against him."

"It is important that we not reverse marriage equality."

"You know, every time Donald thinks things are not going in his direction, he claims whatever it is, is rigged against him."

"Well, he held a number of big rallies where he said that he could not possibly have done those things to those women because they were not attractive enough for them to be assaulted."

"Well, you know, once again, Donald is implying that he didn't support the invasion of Iraq."

"That's horrifying."

"America already is great, but we are great because we are good."

"I take responsibility for using a personal e-mail account."

"I'm very sorry about that."

"I hate to interrupt you, but at some point…"

"I respect the Second Amendment."

"I want to be the president for all Americans, regardless of your political beliefs, where you come from, what you look like, your religion."

"You mentioned the Heller decision."

"And it is a mistake and it plays into the hands of the terrorists to act as though we are."

"Syria will remain a hotbed of terrorism as long as the civil war, aided and abetted by the Iranians and the Russians, continue."

"And this is a gift to ISIS and the terrorists, violent jihadist terrorists."

"And when you look at what you are proposing…"

"And they really matter when you are president."

"You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables."

"We're gonna take on youth homelessness, and as my wonderful, extraordinary, great daughter said, we are going to end the cruel and dangerous practice of conversion therapy."

"And every day he says something else which I find so personally offensive, but also dangerous."

"I'm not like Donald Trump who says 'I alone can fix it.' I've never quire figure out what it is he alone can fix."

"I know there are only 60 days left to make our case — and don't get complacent, don't see the latest outrageous, offensive, inappropriate comment and think well he's done this time."

"The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic — you name it."

"You could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables."

"He tweets and retweets their offensive hateful mean-spirited rhetoric."

"So we've got to address the systemic racism in our criminal justice system."

"And it becomes particularly threatening if terrorists ever get their hands on any nuclear material."

"Let's talk about two important issues that were briefly mentioned by Donald, first, NATO."

"Well, it's also fair to say, if we're going to talk about mayors, that under the current mayor, crime has continued to drop, including murders."

"Look, one murder is too many."

"We're working with NATO, the longest military alliance in the history of the world, to really turn our attention to terrorism."

"And first lady Michelle Obama reminded us that our children are watching. And the president we elect is going to be their president, too."

"My primary mission as president will be to create more opportunity and more good jobs with rising wages right here in the United States."

"We heard from our terrific vice president, the one and only Joe Biden."

"And here's what I believe. I believe America thrives when the middle class thrives. I believe our economy isn't working the way it should because our democracy isn't working the way it should."

"It became clear to me that simply caring is not enough. To drive real progress, you have to change both hearts and laws. You need both understanding and action."

"Americans don't say "I alone can fix it." We say "we'll fix it together!""

"I was thinking of Lauren, Debbie and all the others 10 years later in the White House Situation Room when President Obama made the courageous decision that finally brought Osama bin Laden to justice."

"That's why we need to appoint Supreme Court justices who will get money out of politics and expand voting rights, not restrict them."

"My mother, Dorothy, was abandoned by her parents as a young girl. She ended up on her own at 14 working as a housemaid. She was saved by the kindness of others. Her first-grade teacher saw she had nothing to eat at lunch, and brought extra food to share the entire year."

"Well, we heard Donald Trump's answer last week at his convention. He wants to divide us from the rest of the world and from each other. He's betting that the perils of today's world will blind us to its unlimited promise. He's taken the Republican Party a long way, from morning in America to midnight in America."

"Our country's motto is E Pluribus Unum, out of many we are one. Will we stay true to that motto?"

"America needs every one of us to lend our energy, our talents, our ambition to making our nation better and stronger. I believe that with all my heart. That's why "stronger together" is not just a lesson from our history, it's not just a slogan for our campaign, it's a guiding principle for the country we've always been and the future we're going to build, a country where the economy works for everyone, not just those at the top."

"I have to tell you, as your secretary of state I went to 112 countries. When people hear those words, they hear America!"

"So don't let anyone tell you that our country is weak. We're not. Don't let anyone tell you we don't have what it takes. We do. And most of all, don't believe anyone who says I alone can fix it."

"Where you can get a good job and send your kids to a good school, no matter what ZIP code you live in. A country where all our children can dream and those dreams are within reach, where families are strong, communities are safe and, yes, where love trumps hate."

"Now America is once again at a moment of reckoning. Powerful forces are threatening to pull us apart. Bonds of trust and respect are fraying. And just as with our Founders, there are no guarantees. It truly is up to us. We have to decide whether we will all work together so we can all rise together."

"And in this campaign, I've met many more people who motivate me to keep fighting for change. And with your help, I will carry all of your voices and stories with me to the White House."

"You know, that conversation has lasted through good times that filled us with joy and hard times that tested us. And I've even gotten a few words in along the way."

"And you heard from Republicans and independents who are supporting our campaign. Well, I will be a president for Democrats, Republicans, independents, for the struggling, the striving, the successful, for all those who vote for me and for those who don't. For all Americans together!"

"I'm also grateful to the rest of my family and to the friends of a lifetime."

"But we haven't done a good enough job showing we get what you're going through, and we're going to do something to help. So tonight I want to tell you how we will empower Americans to live better lives."

"And if necessary, we will pass a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United!"

"240 years later, we still put our faith in each other. Look at what happened in Dallas after the assassinations of five brave police officers. Police Chief David Brown asked the community to support his force, maybe even join them. And you know how the community responded? Nearly 500 people applied in just 12 days."

"Our country needs your ideas, energy and passion. That is the only way we can turn our progressive platform into real change for America. We wrote it together, now let's go out and make it happen together!"

"Because we changed our law to make sure she got an education. So it's true. I sweat the details of policy, whether we're talking about the exact level of lead in the drinking water in Flint, Michigan, the number of mental health facilities in Iowa or the cost of your prescription drugs."

"After the four days of this convention, you've seen some of the people who have inspired me, people who let me into their lives and became a part of mine, people like Ryan Moore and Lauren Manning. They told their stories Tuesday night."

"Our economy is so much stronger than when they took office. Nearly 15 million new private sector jobs, 20 million more Americans with health insurance, and an auto industry that just had its best year ever."

"We will not ban a religion. We will work with all Americans and our allies to fight and defeat terrorism."

"But even more important than the history we make tonight is the history we will write together in the years ahead."

"Tonight we've reached a milestone in our nation's march toward a more perfect union. The first time that a major party has nominated a woman for president!"

"Bernie, your campaign inspired millions of Americans, particularly the young people who threw their hearts and souls into our primary."

"Yes, those were actually Donald Trump's words in Cleveland. And they should set off alarm bells for all of us. Really? I alone can fix it? Isn't he forgetting troops on the front lines, police officers and firefighters who run toward danger, doctors and nurses who care for us, teachers who change lives, entrepreneurs who see possibilities in every problem, mothers who lost children to violence and are building a movement to keep other kids safe? He's forgetting every last one of us."

"Twenty years ago I wrote a book called "It Takes a Village." And a lot of people looked at the title and asked, what the heck do you mean by that? This is what I mean. None of us can raise a family, build a business, heal a community or lift a country totally alone."

"Now, that's real progress, but none of us can be satisfied with the status quo, not by a long shot. We're still facing deep-seated problems that developed long before the recession and have stayed with us through the recovery."

"We have the most powerful military, the most innovative entrepreneurs, the most enduring values, freedom and equality, justice and opportunity, we should be so proud that those words are associated with us."

"That's the country we're fighting for. That's the future we're working toward. And so, my friends, it is with humility, determination and boundless confidence in America's promise that I accept your nomination for president of the United States!"

"And remember, remember, our Founders fought a Revolution and wrote a Constitution so America would never be a nation where one person had all the power."

"Lauren Manning, who stood here with such grace and power, was gravely injured on 9/11. It was the thought of her and Debbie St. John who you saw in the movie and John Dolan and Joe Sweeney and all the victims and survivors that kept me working as hard as I could in the Senate on behalf of 9/11 families and our first responders who got sick from their time at ground zero."

"So let me tell you. The family I'm from, well, no one had their name on big buildings. My family were builders of a different kind, builders in the way most American families are. They used whatever tools they had, whatever God gave them and whatever life in America provided and built better lives and better futures for their kids."

"My friends, we've come to Philadelphia, the birthplace of our nation, because what happened in this city 240 years ago still has something to teach us today. We all know the story, but we usually focus on how it turned out and not enough on how close that story came to never being written at all."

"From my first day in office to my last, especially in places that for too long have been left out and left behind, from our inner cities to our small towns, from Indian country to coal country, from communities ravaged by addiction, to regions hollowed out by plant closures."

"He wants us to fear the future and fear each other. Well, you know, a great Democratic President Franklin Delano Roosevelt came up with the perfect rebuke to Trump more than 80 years ago during a much more perilous time: The only thing we have to fear is fear itself!"

"He spoke from his big heart about our party's commitment to working people as only he can do."

"Too many threats at home and abroad. But just look for a minute at the strengths we bring as Americans to meet these challenges."

"So I went to work for the Children's Defense Fund, going door-to- door in New Bedford, Massachusetts on behalf of children with disabilities who were denied the chance to go to school. I remember meeting a young girl in a wheelchair on the small back porch of her house. She told me how badly she wanted to go to school. It just didn't seem possible in those days. And I couldn't stop thinking of my mother and what she'd gone through as a child."

"Now, I don't think President Obama and Vice President Biden get the credit they deserve for saving us from the worst economic crisis of our lifetimes."

"Let's begin with what we're going to do to help working people in our country get ahead and stay ahead."

"So let's keep going. Let's keep going until every one of the 161 million women and girls across America has the opportunity she deserves to have!"

"And to all of your supporters here and around the country, I want you to know I've heard you. Your cause is our cause."

"Yet, we know there is a lot to do. Too many people haven't had a pay raise since the crash. There's too much inequality, too little social mobility, too much paralysis in Washington."

"But my job titles only tell you what I've done. They don't tell you why. The truth is, through all these years of public service, the service part has always come easier to me than the public part."

"Because it's not just a detail if it's your kid, if it's your family. It's a big deal. And it should be a big deal to you president, too."

"When representatives from 13 unruly colonies met just down the road from here, some wanted to stick with the king and some wanted to stick it to the king."

"I've gone around the country talking to working families and I've heard from many who feel like the economy sure isn't working for them. Some of you are frustrated, even furious. And you know what? You're right. It's not yet working the way it should. Americans are willing to work and work hard, but right now an awful lot of people feel there is less and less respect for the work they do and less respect for them, period."

"I first met Ryan as a 7-year old. He was wearing a full-body brace that must have weighed 40 pounds because I leaned over to lift him up. Children like Ryan kept me going when our plan for universal health care failed and kept me working with leaders of both parties to help create the Children's Health Insurance Program that covers 8 million kids in our country."

"So we gathered facts, we built a coalition and our work helped convince Congress to ensure access to education for all students with disabilities. It's a big idea, isn't it? Every kid with a disability has the right to go to school."

"To all of you whose hard work brought us here tonight and to those of you who joined this campaign this week, thank you. What a remarkable week it's been!"

"The lessons she passed on to me years later stuck with me. No one gets through life alone. We have to look out for each other and lift each other up. And she made sure I learned the words from our Methodist faith: Do all the good you can for all the people you can in all the ways you can as long as ever you can."

"Because he believed that if he gave everything he had, his children would have a better life than he did. And he was right. My dad, Hugh, made it to college, he played football at Penn State and enlisted in the Navy after Pearl Harbor. When the war was over, he started his own small business printing fabric for draperies. I remember watching him stand for hours over silkscreens. He wanted to give my brothers and me opportunities he never had, and he did."

"Standing here as my mother's daughter and my daughter's mother, I'm so happy this day has come. I'm happy for grandmothers and little girls and everyone in between. I'm happy for boys and men. Because when any barrier falls in America, it clears the way for everyone."

"On Tuesday night I was so happy to see that my "explainer in chief" is still on the job."

"The Revolution hung in the balance, and somehow they began listening to each other, compromising, finding common purpose. And by the time they left Philadelphia, they had begun to see themselves as one nation. That's what made it possible to stand up to a king. That took courage, they had courage. Our Founders embraced the enduring truth that we are stronger together."

"And Chelsea, thank you. I am so proud to be your mother and so proud of the woman you've become. Thank you for bringing Mark into our family and Charlotte and Aidan into the world."

"And Bill, that conversation we started in the law library 45 years ago ... it is still going strong."

"We heard the man from Hope, Bill Clinton, and the man of hope, Barack Obama. America is stronger because of President Obama's leadership. And I'm better because of his friendship."

"Now, we are clear-eyed about what our country is up against. But we are not afraid. We will rise to the challenge just as we always have. We will not build a wall; instead, we will build an economy where everyone who wants a good job can get one. And we'll build a path to citizenship for millions of immigrants who are already contributing to our economy."

"But how? How do you make an idea like that real? You do it step by step, year by year, sometimes even door by door. My heart just swelled when I saw Anastasia Somoza representing millions of young people on this stage."

"Now, sometimes—sometimes—the people at this podium are new to the national stage. As you know, I'm not one of those people. I've been your first lady, served eight years as a senator from the great state of New York, then I represented all of you as secretary of state."

"You've put economic and social justice issues front and center where they belong."

"And for those of you out there who are just getting to know Tim Kaine you will soon understand why the people of Virginia keep promoting him from city council and mayor to governor and now senator. And he will make our whole country proud as our vice president."
