"The arts and humanities teach us who we are and what we can be. They lie at the very core of the culture of which we're a part."

Previous Quote

The arts and humanities define who we are as a people. That is their power -- to remind us of what we each have to offer, and what we all have in common. To help us understand our history and imagine our future. To give us hope in the moments of struggle and to bring us together when nothing else will.
