Donald Trump

The future belongs to the dreamers, not to the critics. The future belongs to the people who follow their heart, no matter what the critics say, because they truly believe in their vision.

Sometimes you need conflict in order to come up with a solution. Through weakness, oftentimes, you can’t make the right sort of settlement, so I’m aggressive, but I also get things done, and in the end, everybody likes me.

It’s like in golf… A lot of people – I don’t want this to sound trivial – but a lot of people are switching to these really long putters, very unattractive… it’s weird. You see these great players with these really long putters, because they can’t sink three-footers anymore. And, I hate it. I am a traditionalist. I have so many fabulous friends who happen to be gay, but I am a traditionalist.

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.

The other candidates – they went in, they didn’t know the air conditioning didn’t work. They sweated like dogs…How are they gonna beat ISIS? I don’t think it’s gonna happen.

Think Big and make it happen.

I think the 24-hour news cycle has helped exaggerate the differences between the parties. You can always find someone on TV somewhere carping about something. That didn’t happen 20 years ago.

You can’t interview my brother!… We can call this thing off – right now!

My Twitter has become so powerful that I can actually make my enemies tell the truth.

There’s so much comedy on television. Does that cause comedy in the streets?

It seems not more reasonable to leave the right of printing unrestrained, because writers may be afterwards censured, than it would be to sleep with doors unbolted, because by our laws we can hang a thief.

The media is really, the word, I think one of the greatest of all terms I’ve come up with is fake. I guess other people have used it perhaps over the years, but I’ve never noticed it.

We want someone to bring us the news.

When I hear about negative and false attacks, I really don’t invest any energy in them, because I know who I am.

We got killed in Newsweek.

Television is the first truly democratic culture – the first culture available to everybody and entirely governed by what the people want. The most terrifying thing is what people do want.

Fake news is at an all time high. Where is their apology to me for all of the incorrect stories???

I’ve met some great people that deal with me in the press. I’ve also met some people that were very dishonorable, frankly.

I would rather have been beaten up in the media than live a life that wasn’t happy.

Television enables you to be entertained in your home by people you wouldn’t have in your home.

With the press there is no ‘off the record’.
