“Nine out of ten adult Americans have a checking account. It's the most widely used financial services product in the United States.”

“In America, we have long stood by the principle that the protections of the law are not meant just for some.”

“I want to bring clean water to people who do not have it. What I'm trying to do now is think of ways to build a well-drilling machine that is low-cost so people in rural areas can afford it.”

“No state on earth can afford to allow several authorities to co-exist next to one another.”

“Class structures are a luxury that we cannot afford.”
