What I want young women and girls to know is: You are powerful and your voice matters. You're going to walk into many rooms in your life and career where you may be the only one who looks like you or who has had the experiences you've had. But you remember that when you are in those rooms, you are not alone. We are all in that room with you applauding you on. Cheering your voice. And just so proud of you. So you use that voice and be strong.

Additional quotes by Kamala Harris

In a clip that is recirculating on TikTok, Harris — who delivered a speech to wrap the Democratic National Convention on Thursday night — tells a group of teenagers that the key to overcoming fear onstage is remembering that “it’s not about you.” Rather, she says, imagine you’re on the Titanic and you’re the only one who knows the ship is about to sink. “Are you going to worry about how you look and how you sound? No, because the thing that’s most important is that everyone knows what you know, because they need to know what you know,” Harris says. “So when you give your speech, you know something that you have to share with people, that they need to know.”

I love our country with all my heart. Everywhere I go — everywhere I go, in everyone I meet, I see a nation that is ready to move forward, ready for the next step in the incredible journey that is America. I see an America where we hold fast to the fearless belief that built our nation and inspired the world — that here, in this country, anything is possible; that nothing is out of reach. An America where we care for one another, look out for one another, and recognize that we have so much more in common than what separates us. That none of us — none of us has to fail for all of us to succeed. And that in unity, there is strength.
