The War Room1993

James Carville:
There's a simple doctrine: outside of a person's love, the most sacred thing that they can give is their labor. And somehow or another along the way, we tend to forget that. Labor is a very precious thing that you have. Anytime that you can combine labor with love, you've made a good merger. I think that we're gonna win tomorrow, and I think the governor's going to fulfill his promise and change America. And I think many of you are going to go on and help him. I'm a political professional, that's what I do for a living, and I'm proud of it. [weeping] We change the way campaigns are run. It used to be, there was a hierarchy. If you were on one floor, get to another floor. Everybody was compartmentalized. You people showed that you can be trusted. Everybody in this room, everybody. People are gonna tell you you're lucky. You're not. Ben Hogan said 'Golf is a game of luck. The more practice, the luckier I get.' The harder you work, the luckier you are. I was thirty-three years old before I went to Washington or New York. Forty-two before I won my first campaign. And I'm happy for all y'all. You've been part of something special in my life... and I'll never forget what y'all have done. Thank you.
