People want a grounded government. They want a government that's going to be responsible to them.

I see a New York that is once again the empire state.

I'm 64 years old and, yeah, I went through a transition in my life last year, with the death of my son, that woke me up to a lot of things. You know, I'm perfectly happy in my own little groove. Marching along, building my company, and you know, a happy person.

We're going to restructure the state government into a government that's responsive to the needs of New York state taxpayers.

I think the media has been in denial just like the party regulars have been in denial. They just don't understand that the government that we have today is not what the people want as a government.

I believe in the American Dream because I have lived the American Dream.

I just think my children and your children would be much better off and much more successful getting married and raising a family, and I don't want them brainwashed into thinking that homosexuality is an equally valid and successful option. It isn't.
