“You must set a goal and win in the marketplace no matter what the air temperature. You must pay the price for success.”

Our philosophy is we call it as we see it. Sometimes you agree, sometimes you don’t. Robust debate is good.

I don’t need the approval of the press, but I just wish they’d stop the viciousness….I never felt sorry for people like Lindsay Lohan in my life. I thought they were dopey little movie stars. Now I feel sorry for those people.

Get punctual, bring energy and creativity to your work, and stay with a project until it’s completed (and then double-check the results). These habits will make you indispensable.

My father firmly embraced the Ralph Kramden philosophy: he was king of his Levittown castle. He worked hard, and his family deferred to his wishes. Except me. I did not defer and was disciplined accordingly.

Traditionalists like me believe the USA has become strong because of its core values, the freedom, individual responsibility and institutions like traditional marriage, which foster common goals.

I’m enamored of any person, a young person, a lesbian, straight, gay guy who wants to go over and kill bad guys for me and my family. That blows me away.

I know that Oswald killed Kennedy. Now, was he pushed? Encouraged to do it by outsiders? Possibly. Possibly. Was he sitting down with Fidel Castro? No.

If the Americans go in and overthrow Saddam Hussein and it’s clean, he has nothing, I will apologize to the nation, and I will not trust the Bush administration again.

I think that the terrible, disgraceful coverage actually got Donald Trump elected, along with Hillary Clinton’s inability to connect with voters on any level. That’s another thing, she was a terrible candidate.

Donald Trump is an entertainer. Okay. He goes on shows like Howard Stern’s to get people to watch his program. “The Apprentice” or buy his books or whatever.

If you are a kid in America, and you live in a secular home and go to public school, you know nothing about Jesus of Nazareth. The only time you hear the word Jesus is when somebody’s yelling at you – Jesus, okay?

You can’t be a real man if you don’t look out for your kids. They need you.

Yeah, I’m obnoxious, yeah, I cut people off, yeah, I’m rude. You know why? Because you’re busy.

Every government intervention [in the marketplace] creates unintended consequences, which lead to calls for further government interventions.

You will be paid in direct proportion to the value you create in the marketplace.

Globalization is simply opening the free marketplace to encompass the entire world.

What we have found over the years in the marketplace is that derivatives have been an extraordinarily useful vehicle to transfer risk from those who shouldn’t be taking it to those who are willing to and are capable of doing so.

Socrates, on being insulted in the marketplace, asked by a passerby, “Don’t you worry about being called names?” retorted, “Why? Do you think I should resent it if an ass had kicked me?

Strategy should evolve out of the mud of the marketplace, not in the antiseptic environment of an ivory tower.

It’s better to be first in the mind than to be first in the marketplace.
