- My brother was Muslim, and he was killed by people who pretend to be Muslims. They are terrorists, that's it.
- We forget these are criminals they're out there apprehending. [Mayor] De Blasio's out there on the front lines defending these criminals. But the people who are defending his own family, he's not out here for. And I find it disgraceful…As the leader of this city, he needs to show a little more support for the cops. They're the ones that are dying for us. Simple.
- I don’t like [the pressure] that people put on me - on women - that you’ve failed yourself as a female because you haven’t procreated…This continually is said about me: that I was so career-driven and focused on myself; that I don’t want to be a mother, and how selfish that is…Even saying it gets me a little tight in my throat.
- I hear a lot of people say, 'Hey, it's been two years, things should be getting better.' But experts tell us from a recovery standpoint, [Newtown is] in its infancy.
- My son was 12 years old, just a baby, a baby, my baby, the youngest out of four…I want to thank the nation for supporting us. That’s the only way I’m standing today - that I’m standing right now.

- Me and Jaden just figured out that our voices sound like chocolate together. As good as chocolate tastes, it sounds that good.
- Let`s face it, the city is really in a panic at this point in anticipation of this [grand jury] decision…On behalf of [Michael Brown’s] family, I reiterate for the umpteenth time - and they wanted me to make it crystal clear - they do not advocate any violence, any looting, any rioting. They are totally against that.
- [Sandy Hook] was the one that was supposed to make a difference. It wasn't a high school. The victims were 20 first graders, 6-year-olds, along with six staff members. But the numbers indicate nothing much has changed. Sandy Hook turned out to be not a call to action, but a gruesome standard from which all inaction can be judged.

- Fed by a strong desire to use his life to save the lives of others, Abdul-Rahman was drawn to the camps that are filled with displaced families and to understaffed hospitals inside Syria. We know he found his home amongst the Syrian people, and he hurt when they were hurting.
