More From Jodi Rell

Faith and daily life, faith and work-these are not separate things. they are one and the same. to think of them as separate-that faith is faith, and work is work-is theoretical faith. based on the recognition that work and faith are one and the same, we should put one hundred percent of our energy into our jobs and one hundred percent into our faith, too. when we resolve to do this, we enter the path of victory in life. faith means to show irrefutable proof of victory amid the realities of society and in our own daily lives.

Privilege is not in and of itself bad; what matters is what we do with privilege. i want to live in a world where all women have access to education, and all women can earn phd’s, if they so desire. privilege does not have to be negative, but we have to share our resources and take direction about how to use our privilege in ways that empower those who lack it.

What matters now, the only thing that matters right now is that whatever you think of the conservative movement and whoever you think is or isn't one, no matter who you think they are, they cannot unify around the concept of beating a democrat. that's what you have to learn. if that's the movement you want to be part of, then you have at it.
