“I’m a big believer in dreaming. If you don’t dream it, you can’t become it.”

Jealousy is invariably a symptom. Just like right now with the whole mortgage crisis, I want to help people get back into their homes.

We are a company that lives and breathes a philosophy that’s centered on not only making sound business decisions but also personally and professionally finding ways to contribute to the well being of society.

I love business. I love helping urban communities grow. I love putting people to work of color. I love making sure – like right now the whole mortgage crisis, I want to help people get back into their homes.

I wanted to do two things when I was growing up, about your age. I wanted to play in the NBA, and I wanted to be a businessman after my basketball career was over, and that is what I am doing now.

Even as a fierce competitor I try to smile.

When you face a crisis, you know who your true friends are.

I love coming to work. I never have a bad day.

Most people who are healthy, and I’m healthy, can’t even live my life.

I love to be in the ballpark. I love to just go in and enjoy a great baseball game, a great pitchers’ duel.

A lot of black guys always ask me, ‘Did Larry Bird really play that good?’ I said, ‘Larry Bird is so good it’s frightening.’

If people around you aren’t going anywhere, if their dreams are no bigger than hanging out on the corner, or if they’re dragging you down, get rid of them.

We are also a company that understands community.

I was able to see what I wanted to do, I could see the opportunity, even when others could not, and I stay committed to doing it and doing it well, no matter what.

I tell you, it’s funny because the only time I think about HIV is when I have to take my medicine twice a day.

You’re the only one who can make the difference. Whatever your dream is, go for it.

No I changed my mind. I’ll go up on the other side.’ He’s just incredible.

I think living to be one hundred would be great, but living to fifty twice would be so much better.

I’m not a good businessman and I don’t promote myself particularly well. It’s best I don’t talk to anybody lest I alienate myself.

I think my dad is the only Arabic descendent who is an unsuccessful businessman.

I was forced to be an artist and a CEO from the beginning, so I was forced to be like a businessman because when I was trying to get a record deal, it was so hard to get a record deal on my own that it was either give up or create my own company.

I wanted to do two things when I was growing up, about your age. I wanted to play in the NBA, and I wanted to be a businessman after my basketball career was over, and that is what I am doing now.

I am a businessman. This is what I do each and every day. I love it. I love coming to work. I never have a bad day.

The thing I love about Donald, it’s time this country is run by a businessman and not people with their hands out, and Donald doesn’t have his hands out.

My dad was a terrible businessman.
