"There is a lot of responsibility, but I do feel that the optimism, the commitment, the openness, the level of care and concern of the younger generation is going to save us. I've already learned a lot from my daughter and her friends, the questions they ask, and the concerns they have. I will continue to be open to learning from the younger generation, and I think the second that you give up hope is the second that you have declared failure. And I think nobody wants to declare failure. People want to still have children and want to still go to beautiful places and want those places to be safe and clean.”
