Happy Birthday Hillary Clinton! Here Are 10 Inspiring Quotes To Celebrate The 2016 Presidential Candidate's Birthday

Monday marks presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton's 68th birthday, but she already kicked off the celebrations over the weekend.

It's been a big year for Clinton and she's celebrating in a big way. Singer Katy Perry helped celebrate the Democratic candidate's birthday with a performance Saturday at Clinton's Iowa rally. Perry's set list included Clinton favorites such as "Firework" and "Roar."

"Thank you @katyperry for being in Iowa with @HillaryClinton! Love your early bday gift!" tweeted Clinton campaign vice chairwoman Huma Abedin tweeted.

Clinton then made her way to New York Sunday for the perfect type of party for someone running for president: a campaign fundraiser.

Here we've compiled quotes from her more than 20 years in the public eye to celebrate the former Secretary of State's birthday:
