Thank you to all the people who send me letters and tweets and wave on the street or give thumbs up. I cant express how much it means to me. Your energy keeps me going in your smiles like my soul and i thank you. To the 59 Million Viewers who shared in these daily briefings, thank you. Thank you for giving me the benefit of the doubt, thank you for believing in me and giving me support. Good lord knows i needed it and dont worry, im not going anywhere. Someone said to me they were concerned because he relied on me to know what was happening. I still do what i do, we just dont have to do it every day and that is a good thing, lets hope it stays that way. I know this period has been hard on all of us. I thought about it every day has climbing a mountain, Mount Everest of social challenges. 42 days up the mountain and 69 days down the other side. Every step, every day hurt and was hard. It was frightening and sad, but i really believe we will be the better for it. I believe we are. I was talking to michaela the other day, she was supposed to graduate from college this year and was going to have a great ceremony and a big garden and i said i was sorry she would miss that but she said something interesting. She said she was disappointed about missing the ceremony but she had learned a lot in the past three months, she learned about herself, she learned about government, she learned about people, she got an education just when she thought her education was over. Shes right. After 62 years, when i thought i had seen it all, i got an education too. A few weeks ago i had been thinking i was disappointed we didnt get to unveil our new state seal that our Legislature Just changed to add the words e pluribus unum, out of many, one. We did it back in april because we thought the country needed to remember at this time of division that americans are one and we are united. Remember that our nations founding premise and enduring promise is unity. But then i realized, in many ways we did something even better. We didnt just put the words on our state seal. We made the words come true. We made the words come to life. In this crisis we were united. We were there, one for another. We did act as one. It was extraordinary. I have never seen or felt anything like it. I ask myself, today i ask you, why did it take a crisis to bring us together . Why does government usually appeal to the worst in us rather than the best . Why do our Politics Today play to our fears and weaknesses rather than our strengths . Why doesnt government challenged us to reach higher and speak to our better angels . Why cant it motivate us by love rather than hate . Why doesnt government urged us to realize we are all members of the same community, the same family and we all benefit when we Work Together . Is that what we really showed in the past 111 days, but working together works, that the only way forward is if i protect you and you protect me . I wear a mask for you and you wear a mask for me. If you care for me and i care for you. We showed that in the end love does win. Love does conquer all. No matter how dark the day, love brings the light. That is what i will take from the past 111 days and it inspires me and energizes me and excites me. If we could accomplish to gather what we did here, this Impossible Task of beating back this deadly virus then there is nothing we cant do and we will be better and we will be stronger for what we have gone through and it shows us how capable we are when we are at our best. It shows us we have Great Potential to do even more and we will. Now new york must lead the nation on Police Reform and lead the way on Building Back better, we must lead the way on reenergizing our economy and protecting our environment and welcoming a new era of civil rights and social justice. I know that we can. We learned that our better angels are stronger than our demons and sometimes we just need to listen for them. Over the past 111 days we have done it and it was beautiful. Lets keep listening together. Thank you for everything and god bless. The first day i went before the people of new york state and said im going to tell you the truth, tell you the facts, the way i know it, we are going to try every way we can to save every life that we can. Did one thing right as governor than i am proud. I got the people involved in this situation to a greater degree than they have been involved in modern history. This was of such magnitude that unless people engage and understood and bought into this government, people had to understand the facts, people had to engage in governing themselves in a way they havent in decades. Ten years from now you will be talking about today, your children, your grandchildren and you will shed a tear because you will remember the lives lost and you will remember the faces in the names and you will remember how hard we worked, and the we still lost loved ones. We changed that trajectory. I didnt even know it was possible at one time. It is about what people decide to do and what people have decided to do. They have brought this infection rate down. Nurses, doctors did a phenomenal job, First Responders did a phenomenal job, essential workers did a phenomenal job but the rate came down because people changed their behavior. You have 19 Million People in new york, they decided to do things that would have never dreamed they would do. We have the lowest rate of transmission, phased reopening is working, stay the course and stay responsible but we are new york tough and i love new york because new york loves you, new york loves all of you, black and white and brown and asian and short and tall and gay and straight, new york loves everyone. That is why i love new york and at the end of the day even if it is a long day and this was a long day, love wins. Always.
