We've shown the world that New York can never be defeated, because of its dynamic and diverse population and because it embodies the spirit of enterprise and the love of liberty. And because no matter who you are, if you believe in yourself and your dream, New York will always be the place for you.

[Jeb Bush] could, as I describe it, run the railroad.[John] Kasich could run the railroad. Hillary Clinton can run the railroad. Running the railroad is the most important thing. You have got 4 million employees you've got to make the system work, and it doesn't work very well.
Michael Bloomberg
New York has been, and will continue to be, a magnet for people from all over the world. This is where the arts, business, research and technology converge to create the world's foremost urban economy.
Michael Bloomberg
The estate taxes, on balance, are good. They get people to give money to charity, and they prevent these family dynasties which keep other people from having opportunities. It may be good for a family, but for society it's probably not good. And I've always been in favor of having an estate tax.
Michael Bloomberg
America was built by immigrants. Almost nobody that I know is any more than three generations, maybe four generations, American.
Michael Bloomberg
You can buy almost anything anyplace in the world. You can get it delivered in 24 hours. You can pay for it on credit or just by swiping something. So, I don't know that the world is worse off, in that context, than before.
Michael Bloomberg
I have two daughters that are the loves of my life and I want to leave them a better world, a better country, a better state and a better city.
Michael Bloomberg
And I keep saying, whether you like the president or not, everybody has to pull together and help the president because, as the president goes, so goes the country, as the country goes, so goes your job, your ability to feed your family, your government.
Michael Bloomberg
In business, when you fail at something, when something doesn't work, you say okay, we've learned that that's not a path to go down.
Michael Bloomberg
What we shouldn't do is let people who want to come here make the decision themselves. America should be in control of its own borders.
Michael Bloomberg
If you can't prove it's not true then a certain number of people will glom on and say it is true.
Michael Bloomberg
I do not think that anybody should get paid for lousy performance. I've said that for a long time. If you work hard and you do good, you get paid well.
Michael Bloomberg
If a hurricane strikes, we can blame the president for not being there we can blame Congress and FEMA we can blame the state governments but in the end, it's the mayors and the local city governments that have to be prepared for emergencies and be prepared to act.
Michael Bloomberg
And if I were the president, I'd go out there and I'd emphasize the things I have done, and I'd say, 'Some things haven't worked, and I'm sorry about that, but I keep trying.' And I'm - and I think the president is a very viable candidate, and you're going to have a real horse race here no matter who the Republican nominee is.
Michael Bloomberg
Yes, they broke the law, but we can't deport them. Let's get over this pointing fingers and do something about that, whether it - they have to pay a fine, learn to speak English, the history, you can do that. And then you have to give visas for the skills we need.
Michael Bloomberg
The problem of dealing with the financial industry is being addressed today. You can measure it with interest rates coming down. You can measure it with the quantity of loans, and that sort of thing. The problem is, that nobody wants to take the loans. Once the banks are willing to give it, that's only half the problem.
