Here are some of the week’s most notable quotes culled from news reports from across Texas, and beyond.
Rocky Suhayda, chairman of the American Nazi Party, voicing his hopes for the party under a Trump presidency.
Now, if Trump does win, okay, it’s going to be a real opportunity for people like white nationalists, acting intelligently to build upon that.

Pop star Sia, announcing her plans to play a free concert in Cleveland as part of the All Access Coalition’s series of events to bring awareness to abortion rights.
We all need to stand together and be a part of creating the future we hope to see. There is so much support out there for an inclusive, equitable society that it’s time we showed our collective power.

Heather Busby, executive director of NARAL Pro-Choice Texas, reacting to the announcement that a $1.6 million state grant for the “Healthy Texas Women” program will go to The Heidi Group, led by an anti-abortion advocate. Only the Harris County public health department received a larger grant.
It’s very inappropriate that the state would contract with an organization that has never performed the services required by the contract. The Heidi Group is an anti-abortion organization; it is not a healthcare provider.

Donald Trump, on winning the presidential election.
I figure it’s probably, maybe the only way I’m going to get to heaven.
