Quote from the breakfast:

“Hillary Rodham Clinton and I may have started on separate paths in the course of this campaign,” he said. “One election cannot erase all the biases and outdated attitudes we’re still wrestling to overcome. And we know there were times during this campaign when those biases flared and emerged. But while this campaign has shown us how far we have to go, we also know that because of what Hillary accomplished, my daughters and yours look at themselves a little differently today. They’re dreaming a little bigger and setting their sights a little higher today.” said Sen. Obama

"Anyone who voted for me has so much in common with those who voted for Barack and it is critical that we join forces, because the Democratic Party is a family, sometimes a dysfunctional family, but it is a family and we care about what’s going to happen to the economy and health care and education and what happens in Iraq and Afghanistan.” said Sen. Clinton.
