“A President is neither prince nor pope,
and I don’t seek a window on men’s souls.
In fact, I yearn for a greater tolerance,
an easy-goingness about each other’s attitudes
and way of life.”

“Listen to your conscience.
Don’t be afraid not to join the mob
if you feel inside it’s wrong.
Don’t confuse being ‘soft’
with seeing the other guy’s point of view.
… Avoid self-righteously turning on a friend,
but have your friendship mean enough
that you would be willing to share
with your friend your judgment.
Don’t assign away your judgment
to achieve power.”

“America must always reject racial bigotry,
anti-Semitism, and hatred in all forms.
As we pray for Charlottesville,
we are reminded of the fundamental truths
recorded by that city’s most prominent citizen
in the Declaration of Independence:
we are all created equal
and endowed by our Creator
with unalienable rights.
We know these truths to be everlasting
because we have seen the decency
and greatness of our country.”
