[Trump] will do the things that are necessary to make that happen because he’s got an ego like all the rest of us, and he wants to be the greatest president, and he knows that he can’t be the greatest president without the acceptance of the black community. So it’s something he’s gonna work towards, but we’re gonna have to speak to him.

I want to create music that’s therapeutic.

Bravery is more important than perfection.- Kanye West

I went to college on an art scholarship at the American Academy of Art, but the education comes from being passionate about objects, spaces, colors and the way they affect your senses.

Ever since the Taylor Swift moment, it’s never been the same – the connection with radio.

People couldn’t give an F about how many cars you got any more. It’s about the way the music sounds, where you’re going, the experience you’re going to hanging out with your friends, the type clothes that you’re wearing – all of that’s art.

The glory of being a carrier pilot has certainly worn off.

I shall be an autocrat: that’s my trade. And the good Lord will forgive me: that’s his.

If a prospective Presidential approach can’t be explained clearly enough to be understood well, it probably hasn’t been thought through well enough. If not well understood by the American people, it probably won’t “sail” anyway. Send it back for further thought.

The universities…are not independent institutions. There may be independent people scattered around in them but that is true of the media as well. And it’s generally true of corporations. It’s true of Fascist states, for that matter. But the institution itself is parasitic.

There should be no unemployment. There is large percentage of labor now which cannot make a living because wages are not high enough. That is industry’s 2nd job. 1st job is to make good product. 2nd pay a good wage.

I am a Communist, a convinced Communist! For some that may be a fantasy. But to me it is my main goal.

I do not feel that we should set up people as ‘models’; rather actions, thoughts, principles.

As soon as questions of will or decision or reason or choice of action arise human science is at a loss.

It is quite possible-overwhelmingly probable, one might guess-that we will always learn more about human life and personality from novels than from scientific psychology

I would like to draw your attention to the fact that in Russia, unlike in one third of the world’s countries, being gay is not a crime.

You do not lament the loss of hair of one who has been beheaded.

I think our Russian Football Union must play an active part in this… and develop a new generation of sportsmen and soccer players.

The heart of the security agenda is protecting lives – and we now know that the number of people who will die of AIDS in the first decade of the 21st Century will rival the number that died in all the wars in all the decades of the 20th century.

I have to keep law and order and it means that I have to kill my enemies before they kill me.

Our aims are absolutely clear: They are a high living standard in the country and a secure, free and comfortable life.
