- The only way I will rest in peace is if one day transgender people aren’t treated the way I was. They [should be] treated like humans, with valid feelings and human rights. Gender needs to be taught about in schools, the earlier the better. My death needs to mean something. My death needs to be counted in the number of transgender people who commit suicide this year…Fix society. Please.
- Gov. Mario Cuomo will be remembered as one of the great inspirational leaders of our time…I learned from Gov. Cuomo's example and will always be grateful for his wisdom and generosity. His legacy continues to serve as a guide for me.
- My brother was Muslim, and he was killed by people who pretend to be Muslims. They are terrorists, that's it.
- Nicholas Sparks is getting divorced. When he has a hard time dating, he'll only have the unrealistic standards he created to blame.
- Community colleges should be free for those willing to work for it – because, in America, a quality education cannot be a privilege that is reserved for a few. I think it’s a right for everybody who’s willing to work for it.
- [We remember] Martin Luther King as an idea, Selma as an idea…what can happen with strategy, with discipline, and with love.

- Ok, that’s the show. From eternity, I’m Stephen Colbert. Jon?
- As doctors and dentists, we share a singular core value that binds us together: an unflinching commitment to improve the lives of our patients. This is our true north. But how this value is reflected in your work – your vision – will be unique to you.
- 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’m basically a libertarian. I’m a conservative on economic matters, and I’m a social liberal.
- On this day long ago, a child was born who - by age 30 - would transform the world. Happy Birthday Isaac Newton - born Dec 25, 1642.
