I wasn't satisfied just to earn a good living. I was looking to make a statement.

When I started out in business, I spent a great deal of time researching every detail that might be pertinent to the deal I was interested in making. I still do the same today. People often comment on how quickly I operate, but the reason I can move quickly is that I've done the background work first, which no one usually sees. I prepare myself thoroughly, and then when it is time to move ahead, I am ready to sprint.

We Americans have to tell Japan in a very nice way, we have to tell Germany, all of these countries, South Korea, we have to say, you have to help us out.

President Obama has almost doubled our national debt to more than $19 trillion, and growing. And yet, what do we have to show for it? Our roads and bridges are falling apart, our airports are Third World condition, and forty-three million Americans are on food stamps.

[Hillary] Clinton has also pledged to add a third executive amnesty.

We have a movement going on, folks. I will never let you down.

When they talk about raising your taxes, I think raise the taxes on some of these countries that are taking advantage of the United States.
