“I hope that America will soon have leadership that inspires our children.  I believe that the model for good and just living starts at the top, and I hope our country chooses to elect those who will govern with both intelligence and humility.”

- Dori Klar, Washington, DC, in response to the question, "What are your hopes for the country?" from Real Simple magazine

 

“My hope for this country is simple:  mindfulness.  Be mindful of the impact regular everyday activities have on others, the earth, ourselves.  Even the smallest things have the capacity for a big impact.”

- Kelly Medill, Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, in response to the same question
