Michelle Obama DNC speech: Read the full text of the former first lady's address
Briefly

"It's the contagious power of hope! The anticipation, the energy, the exhilaration of once again being on the cusp of a brighter day. America, hope is making a comeback!"
"I still feel my mother's loss so profoundly. I wasn't even sure if I'd be steady enough to stand before you tonight. But my heart compelled me to be here..."
"My mom, in her steady, quiet way, lived out that striving sense of hope every single day of her life. She believed that all children, all people, have value."
"We must honor the sacrifices our elders made to give us a better future. Hope is not lost; it empowers us to vanquish fear, division, and hate."
