I also like coming and going, you know, because I think that my private-sector life has contributed to how I think about public-sector challenges and what I do in the public sector.  (Deval Patrick Quotes) The summer before my third year of law school, I worked at a law firm in Washington, D.C. I turned 25 that July, and on my birthday, my father happened to be playing in a local jazz club called Pigfoot and invited me to join him. I hadn’t spent a birthday with him since I was 3, but I agreed.  (Deval Patrick Quotes) We believe that in times like these we should turn to each other, not on each other. We believe that government has a role to play, not in solving every problem in everybody’s life but in helping people help themselves to the American dream. That’s what Democrats believe.  (Deval Patrick Quotes) For too long, Democrats have been telling people what they want to hear. I’m going to tell you what I believe.  (Deval Patrick Quotes) People aren’t going to go bankrupt anymore if they have a serious illness, which was a serious issue here in the country before the Affordable Care Act. And, in fact, the expense of expanding health care for those who need the subsidy is picked up by the federal government for most of the early years.  (Deval Patrick Quotes) I have never taken a job or done a job where I felt I needed to leave my conscience at the door.
