I think abortion is something that, as a personal matter, I would advise somebody against.

Whatever I want to be, I'll discuss with the president-elect [Donald Trump], because that's the best way to do it, not to create more rumors.

Although I have to leave you as mayor soon, I resume the much more honorable title of citizen of New York, and citizen of the United States.

I can't be the Mayor of L.A. I hate the Dodgers. I'm a Yankee fan. Yankee fans can't ever root for the Dodgers.

When you look at the New York Times and you pick it up in the morning, at the top of the paper there's three stories that are anti-Trump. Some of them baseless, some of them silly. And at the bottom you get something about WikiLeaks. Same thing with The Washington Post. Way out of control.

We should be tolerant, fair, open, and we should understand the rights that all people have in our society.

If Donald Trump had said something like I'm going to raise taxes on the middle class, it would be all over the news. You would be questioning his sanity.
