I have a very personal feeling about how special America is, and I know how precious freedom is. It is a sacred gift, sanctified by those who have lived it and those who have died defending it. My right to speak my mind, to have a voice, to be what some have called 'opinionated,' is a right I deeply and profoundly cherish.

- Teresa Heinz

I fight, and have fought, for political freedom, for justice and for fairness and freedom of speech.

- Teresa Heinz
