More From Jackie Robinson
- "I guess you’d call me an independent, since I’ve never identified myself with one party or another in politics. I always decide my vote by taking as careful a look as I can at the actual candidates and issues themselves, no matter what the party label."
- "A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives."
- "I’m not concerned with your liking or disliking me… All I ask is that you respect me as a human being."

- "If you’re climbing the ladder of life, you go rung by rung, one step at a time. Don’t look too far up, set your goals high but take one step at a time. Sometimes you don’t think you’re progressing until you step back and see how high you’ve really gone."― Donny Osmond
