- "Every generation of Americans has understood the profound power of the example of a heroic and holy life, which is why the names of saints are so interwoven throughout the American landscape.

A local businessman championed the name “Saints,” inspired by the city’s celebrated jazz anthem, “When the Saints Go Marching In.”"
- "From sea to shining sea, these names are a constant reminder that a great civilization needs more than material success. It needs examples of goodness. It needs heroes not only of strength and achievement but also of mercy, sacrifice, humility, and love."
- "Countless other saints — parents, teachers, nurses, workers, missionaries, and neighbors whose names history never recorded — quietly showed what holiness can look like in ordinary life."
- "All Saints’ Day proclaims a truth at the heart of the Christian faith: Death does not have the final word."
- "We honor them not merely as heroes of the past but also as signs of the hope that extends to every human life and reaches beyond our earthly existence. I will always defend the freedom of Americans to express their faith openly and without fear."
- "That I don’t know. But he’s a good person. But we’ll certainly find out about it."
