Mitt Romney - "I stand before you today not as a man running for office but as a father and grandfather, a husband, an American. This is a time for each of us to look into our hearts and remember how much we love one another and how much we love and how much we care for our great country. There’s so much love and goodness in the heart of America," said Mitt Romney, speaking from New Hampshire.  (Photo: Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)
Barack Obama - "I don't know how many people at any age would have the presence of mind that Stephanie did, or the courage that Allie showed," said Obama, describing how 21-year-old Stephanie risked her own safety to help keep her wounded friend alive in the theater during remarks delivered after meeting with victims and their families.

We're not going to protect you. Unless you, the public, through your legislature, do what's required to keep us safe,'" said New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who has been calling for stricter gun control laws in the wake of the Colorado shootings.

Barack Obama - "If there’s anything to take away from this tragedy it’s the reminder that life is very fragile. Our time here is limited and it is precious," said President Obama in his first response to the shootings in Aurora, Colorado. "And what matters at the end of the day is not the small things, it’s not the trivial things, which so often consume us and our daily lives. Ultimately, it’s how we choose to treat one another and how we love one another."(Photo: Joe Raedle/Getty Images)
