California's university system is one of the premier higher education systems in the world, and we should require that non-resident students pay a premium to attend it. The revenue generated from these fees can be used to increase affordability and access for more Californians.

Growing up in New York, I was sort of shocked when I realized that my children are Californians. They are 14 years old, and I explain to them frequently that they will never realize the glory of a snow day. You wake up and the world says, 'Oops, it's too much fun to go to school, you've got to stay home and deal with the snow!'

Adam Savage

Californians don't have that marvelous British cynicism, but then the British can be so patronizing at times.

Alex Kingston

Every year, thousands of Californians flee that populous paradise for tax-eased small government oasis of America's red states.

Allen West

Too many Californians are struggling to make ends meet, pay the bills, and send their kids to college. They are looking for progressive leaders in Washington who will fight for them, like Senator Boxer has done for over 20 years.

Antonio Villaraigosa

There is a lot of California in my... sound, and a ton of it is the laid-back nature of Southern Californians and the beach.

Brett Young

Californians are worried about whether they will have a job along with ballooning federal spending and deficits.

Carly Fiorina

You know, Californians care about protecting their environment. So do I. But they also care about that in the context of a healthy economy.

Carly Fiorina

I come from New York originally, but Californians have been wonderful about animals. These animals are so nice and so good and so sweet and intelligent. It's a crime not to help them.

Dick Van Patten

Californians invented the concept of life-style. This alone warrants their doom.

Don DeLillo

The federal government secures the border; Californians decide how we want to treat our population. I think we need a vibrant guest worker program. If we have one, we're going to stop having a lot of issues at the border.

Elizabeth Emken

Californians are blessed with the remarkable leadership of Gov. Jerry Brown, who... has led our state to firm fiscal footing and brought us to the enviable position of dreaming - and achieving - big dreams again.

Gavin Newsom

It's nature-nurture, right? I've been nurtured by Californians.

Gavin Newsom

When Californians see something we truly believe in, we say so and act accordingly - without evasiveness or equivocation.

Gavin Newsom

I am honored to have the opportunity to lead the extraordinary 23,000 employees of PG&E and to support their efforts to safely serve 16 million Californians.

Geisha Williams

We Californians can watch the Weather Channel for images of winter's brutality unleashed upon our fellow Americans and thank our lucky stars we don't have to contend with it.

Henry Rollins

Pension reform can be hard to talk about. In the long run, reform now means fewer demands for layoffs and less draconian measures in the future. It's in the best interest of all Californians to fix this system now.

Jerry Brown

Yes, we absolutely need to eliminate the single-use plastic bag, but we don't have to eliminate the jobs of hardworking Californians to accomplish this goal.

Kevin de Leon

I think that many Californians have been accustomed to, have normalized, that being good sometimes is good enough.

California's university system is one of the premier higher education systems in the world, and we should require that non-resident students pay a premium to attend it. The revenue generated from these fees can be used to increase affordability and access for more Californians.

Louie and Seabiscuit were both Californians and both on the sports pages in the 1930s. I was fascinated. When I learned about his World War II experiences, I thought, 'If this guy is still alive, I want to meet him.'
