"What is God's plan when I go to a college campus? I just believe I will only tell truth, I will not compromise, and I will love on the lost." -- Charlie Kirk, on tape as part of a tribute to him at Sunday's memorial service in the Phoenix, Arizona, suburb of Glendale
"The answer to hate is not hate, the answer as we know from the Gospels, is love, the answer is always love." -- Erika Kirk, Charlie Kirk's widow, in her speech to Sunday's memorial service
"Now much has been said over the past week about Charlie's ability to approach any topic, any person of good faith, an achievement that was only possible because Charlie knew that we were all children of God. He knew, deep down, the truth of scripture. And from that confidence everything else flowed, that unshakeable faith in the Gospel led him to see differences in opinion, not as battlefields to conquer but as waystations in the pursuit of truth. He knew it was right to love others, your neighbor, your interlocutor, your enemy. But he also understood his duty to say what is right and what it wrong, to distinguish what is wrong from what is true." -- Vice President J. D. Vance in his tribute speech for Charlie Kirk at Sunday's gathering
"If you really see the people who came up to him who had a different viewpoint, he would hear them out -- and that's different from a lot of the argumentation that you see either on TV or on the Internet, where everybody's always drowning people out. He actually would listen to people." -- Senator Rand Paul on NBC's "Meet the Press" Sunday morning
"That man, that young man, I forgive him." -- Erika Kirk on Sunday referring to the man accused of killing Charlie Kirk
