“I was in total shock. I work so close [to home] that I figured I’d return to work and the baby nurse would bring the baby to me, and I’d run home periodically, and I’d make it work. But every two hours? That’s a whole other level. I’ll have to make a nursery at the office.”

It’s important to be honest with and respectful of each other and deal with issues as they arrive, as opposed to letting them simmer.

Be passionate. If you are passionate, you will ultimately succeed.

People underestimate me, and that’s fine. I prefer to go into negotiations being underestimated.

Working in a family business, which obviously The Trump Organization is, is an incredible thing, but it’s complicated. It’s complex.

It’s important to get in the habit of growing as a human being, developing and refining leadership and management skills and entrepreneurial instincts and changing to accommodate the times.

The issues in America are so big, and the problems are enormously complicated. But I am incredibly confident in Donald Trump to be able to execute on his promise to the people who elected him.

A scale is only in balance for a brief second. Inevitably the pendulum swings. It’s impossible to maintain.

Modeling was not an endgame for me. I didn’t particularly enjoy the act of it.

In both business and personal life, I’ve always found that travel inspires me more than anything else I do. Evidence of the languages, cultures, scenery, food, and design sensibilities that I discover all over the world can be found in every piece of my jewelry.

If being complicit is wanting to be a force for good and to make a positive impact, then I’m complicit.

I’ve never had a sense of entitlement. I saw how hard my father worked for his money, and it was always made very clear to me that things wouldn’t just be given to me.

The perfection preached in the gospels never yet built an empire. Every man of action has a strong dose of egotism, pride, hardness, and cunning.

Greatness is not built in a rush, but with acre, patience and love.

I was born to a dad who was born in the South Bronx while the Bronx was burning, while landlords were committing arson to their own buildings.

I managed to build myself up only for you to knock me back down again.

I will take this heart, these lungs, these hands and I will rebuild.

A jostling scrum of office buildings so mediocre that the only way you ever remember them is by the frustration they induce – like a basketball team standing shoulder to shoulder between you and the Mona Lisa.

Some of us have great runways already built for us. If you have one, take off. But if you don’t have one, realize it is your responsibility to grab a shovel and build one for yourself and for those who will follow after you.

It’s not always easy to do the right thing. But, doing the right thing makes you strong, it builds character.
