We’re paying more for the privilege of getting sick and dying early. Once again, it makes no sense. And once again, no one in Washington is talking about how to fix it.
I don’t know why people carry guns. Guns kill people.
Today, you’re a piranha if you are seen having coffee with somebody from the other party in many cases.

Entrepreneurship is having an idea to do something great and not entirely have a plan on how to do it but the drive and will power to make it work.
Working collectively and collaboratively is the difference between mediocrity by yourself or success as a team. You have to share the pain and the responsibility and if you do then you will also share in the rewards.

I’d be happy to provide advice if anybody asked me no matter who the President is.
I’d be derelict in my duty if I didn’t go and continue to use every advantage that I can to promote New York’s cause.
I never lie, so if somebody asked me a question, I told them.
Trees will improve property values, take pollutants out of the air, help with water runoff.
Government should not tell you what to do unless there’s a compelling public purpose.
