When politics is no longer a mission but a profession, politicians become more self-serving than public servants.
We need people who dream impossible things, who maybe fail, sometimes succeed, but in any case who have that ambition.
We're not isolated from the world. The world knocks on our door.
I will fight with all my power against the divisions that undermine us and which are tearing us apart.
Modernity is disruptive, and I endorse that.
Believe in individual initiatives, in courage, in risk.
Through work, education, and culture, I will give hope to our country.
I want to become the president of all the people of France - the president of the patriots in the face of the threat from the nationalists.
Globalization can be a great opportunity.
Long live the Republic, long live France.
To create greater convergence, we need more intergration.
The refugee crisis shows we can't be isolated from the world's geopolitical troubles.
Consolidation means less equipment, less networks, and less jobs.
I don't have luxurious tastes or great needs, but my independence is worth a lot to me.
I am not just a liberal movement. I come from the progressive Left. I am trying to refresh and counter the system.
I will protect and defend France's vital interests. I will protect and defend Europe.
To avoid the trap of Europe fragmenting on the economy, security, and identity, we have to return to the original promises of the European project: peace, prosperity and freedom. We should have a real, adult, democratic debate about the Europe we want.
You have to learn to fight for things, to bear the burden and have a life which does not in any way correspond to other peoples' lives.
I touched the limits of our political system, which pushes one to last-minute compromises. Explanations are rarely given. It plays to people's fears because it hasn't built an ideological consensus. It produces flawed solutions and too often ignores reality.
Never boo or hiss at my rallies. That is for people with no hope.
