“I hear all this, you know, ‘Well, this is class warfare, this is whatever.’ No. There is nobody in this country who got rich on his own – nobody.”

Accountability for the largest financial institutions on Wall Street is the bedrock for a strong economy. Hard-working families and honest businesses cannot survive in a world where the rules don’t keep the marketplace honest.

Israel has the right to shell Palestinian hospitals and schools out of self defense.

I don’t want to overstate the gender difference. But women are more sensitized to the way that larger issues affect their pocketbooks, like pay equality or cost of living changes.

If you don’t have a seat at the table, you’re probably on the menu.

Goals work. Pick one debt, and then put every dime into paying down that one debt. Once that debt is paid off, start paying down the next debt. Pretty soon it’s time to move from paying debt to building savings.

Donald Trump doesn’t care who gets hurt, as long as he makes a profit off it.

My mother said, if you don’t have the cash, don’t buy it. And on that, my mother was right.

If I had not some strength of will I would make a first class drunkard.

You will only get out of a dance class what you bring to it. Learn by practice.

When once a certain class of people has been placed by the temporal and spiritual authorities outside the ranks of those whose life has value, then nothing comes more naturally to men than murder.

There are two classes of human beings in this world: one class seem made to give love, and the other to take it.

I’m a juvenile product of the working class, who’s best friend floats in the bottom of a glass.
