  • We want you guys to know about these 62 million girls

  • and we want this to spur and inspire you to not take your education for granted.

  • Because let me tell you, there are 62 million girls around the world

  • who would give anything to be in your position,"

  • "For me this is personal.

  • You know, when I think about those 62 million girls that aren't in school I think about

  • myself,

  • I think about my daughters.

  • Because quite frankly all these girls, these are our girls.

  • And I think about where I would be in my life if I didn't work hard in school

  • and have the opportunity to go to college and then on to law school -

  • I wouldn't be here.

  • So I think it's imperative and it is part of my passion

  • and my mission to make sure that every girl on the planet

  • has the same opportunity that I've had, that my daughters have.

  • And I want to make sure that all of you here in the United States

  • are taking advantage of the opportunities that you have as well,

  • I want you to be that hungry to get your education

  • because it is going to be the key to your future."
