"We all get so busy whether we’re in business or government … it's easy to forget why we do what we do and at the end of the day it is to provide better opportunities, prosperity, peace for those closest to us—particularly the next generation—and everyone else’s children and grandchildren," Clinton said as she accepted the award at a New York luncheon, sharing a table with Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams.
