Donald Trump

Any negative polls are fake news, just like the CNN, ABC, NBC polls in the election. Sorry, people want border security and extreme vetting.

Good publicity is preferable to bad, but from a bottom-line perspective, bad publicity is sometimes better than no publicity at all. Controversy, in short, sells.

Our great African-American President hasn’t exactly had a positive impact on the thugs who are so happily and openly destroying Baltimore.

City Action. Al is a true Damon Runyon character

You’re having a lot of fun, right? Suppose Hillary got elected instead of Trump, you think it would be so exciting?

Think Big and make it happen.

I have to be in tune with my husband, where he is, how he’s feeling. I have to be in tune with where my family is. The same thing is true in the work that I do. It’s all about me feeling where people are. So that’s why I try to be really present, even when I’m on a rope line. I never take for granted my interactions with people. And it’s never black-and-white. I’m usually reading the crowd, reading the people that I’m with. I guess if this role has changed me, it’s improved my ability to do that. I’ve gotten better at sensing where people are at any given time.

I learned another thing from the hurt my cousin gave me – never to give that kind of hurt to anyone else. My revenge was to change a bad feeling into a good one. If I’m working with you and I sense you’re feeling a little insecure, I try to make you feel great. That’s how I get rid of my old hurt. If I don’t do that, my hurt grows and makes me mean and vengeful. But if hurt can change to kindness – that’s something Mama showed me – the world becomes a little less cruel.

I guess my parents were strict. There were a few times when being with my friends and had bring my sister. It was just my parents best interests.

You know, it’s the silliness in me. It has always been there. I love to make people laugh. It comes from my family. My family is funny.

I know what it’s like to be married and to live in a house with a garden, but it’s not something I’m striving for at the moment.

Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten.

My daughter hasn’t seen me with anybody in five years. I’m very, very selective when it comes to that because I want to make sure that it’s real. I don’t want her to see me with just anybody because she means everything to me.

No person in their right mind would want to put their family through what I’ve had to put my family through.

My mother was a very beautiful lady, I thought. She was very good to me. I guess – she died when I was nine and a half, but if she had lived, I probably wouldn’t be trying to play guitar. She wanted me to be known, but as something else. Not a guitar player.

Those who have never had a father can at any rate never know the sweets of losing one. To most men the death of his father is a new lease of life.

It’s incredible watching my son grow up and learn to read, discover the world and test boundaries. Being a mum is the greatest joy of my life, definitely.

You don’t choose your family. They are God’s gift to you, as you are to them.

Brothers and sisters are as close as hands and feet.

Growing up, I was taught that a man has to defend his family. When the wolf is trying to get in, you gotta stand in the doorway. He has to get through you first before he gets into the house to get your family. I’m one of those guys who wants to be in that door.

My daughters are the heart of my heart and the center of my world.
