Unthinkable by Senator Raskin

 “You don’t ridicule people and give them obnoxious nicknames, at least after you graduate from the third grade,” Jamie Raskin

"I have learned that trauma can steal everything from you that is most precious and rip joy right out of your life. But, paradoxically, it can also make you stronger and wiser, and connect you more deeply to other people than you ever imagined, by enabling you to touch their misfortunes and integrate their losses and pain with your own."

"if a person can grow through unthinkable trauma and loss, perhaps a nation may, too."

"If you are one of millions of Americans who have suffered, in these hard days of plague, violence, and climate emergency,  a trauma and rupture like the ones we have experienced in our family, I bid your and your family deep healing and recovery for the battles ahead." Jamie Raskin
