Michelle Obama thanks her supporters and offers them a final piece of advice.
- 1Being your First Lady has been the greatest honor of my life,...
- 2...and I hope I've made you proud.
- 3For all the young people in this room and those who are watching,...
- 4...know that this country belongs to you, to all of you.
- 5Do not ever let anyone make you feel like you don't matter...
- 6...or like you don't have a place in our American story because you do.
- 7And when you encounter obstacles, because I guarantee you you will,...
- 8...and many of you already have,...
- 9...when you are struggling and you start thinking about giving up,...
- 10...I want you to remember something that my husband and I have talked about...
- 11...since we first started this journey nearly a decade ago.
- 12Something that has carried us through every moment in this White House...
- 13...and every moment of our lives, and that is the power of hope.
- 14The belief that something better is always possible...
- 15...if you're willing to work for it and fight for it.
- 16Because that is what moves this country forward every single day.
- 17Our hope for the future and the hard work that hope inspires.
