    - "We believe that Wall Street needs stronger rules and tougher enforcement, and we're willing to fight for it."

    - "We believe in science, and that means that we have a responsibility to protect this Earth."

    - "We believe that the Internet shouldn't be rigged to benefit big corporations, and that means real net neutrality."

    - "We believe that no one should work full-time and still live in poverty, and that means raising the minimum wage."

    - "We believe that fast-food workers deserve a livable wage, and that means that when they take to the picket line, we are proud to fight alongside them."

    - "We believe that students are entitled to get an education without being crushed by debt."

    - "We believe that after a lifetime of work, people are entitled to retire with dignity, and that means protecting Social Security, Medicare, and pensions."

    - "We believe—I can't believe I have to say this in 2014—we believe in equal pay for equal work."

    - "We believe that equal means equal, and that's true in marriage, it's true in the workplace, it's true in all of America."

    - "We believe that immigration has made this country strong and vibrant, and that means reform."

    - "And we believe that corporations are not people, that women have a right to their bodies. We will overturn Hobby Lobby and we will fight for it. We will fight for it!"
