More quotes by Michael Bloomberg
We should remember it wasn't so long ago that confidence in New York was in short supply.
Michael Bloomberg
Central planning didn't work for Stalin or Mao, and it won't work for an entrepreneur either.
Michael Bloomberg
You must first be willing to fail — and you must have the courage to go for it anyway.
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
I have my own army in the NYPD, which is the seventh biggest army in the world. I have my own State Department, much to Foggy Bottom's annoyance. We have the United Nations in New York, and so we have an entree into the diplomatic world that Washington does not have.
Michael Bloomberg
Today, you're a piranha if you are seen having coffee with somebody from the other party in many cases.
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
There's a fascinating statistic: One out of every four people in America has visited New York since 9/11. It is astounding. Now, I don't know how you count it it's some people coming multiple times.
Michael Bloomberg
You can't sit there and worry about everything.
Michael Bloomberg
I'd love to have a president who really was out there leading and traveling around the world campaigning for joint climate change action. Even the Chinese government is trying to get people to stop polluting. And I think the federal government level in China is acting more responsibly than the American government.

My father, a bookkeeper who never earned more than $11,000 a year in his life, sat there, writing out a $25 check to the NAACP. When I asked him why, he said discrimination against anyone is discrimination against us all. And I never forgot that. Indeed, his philanthropy was a gift, not just to that organization, but to me.
Michael Bloomberg
Nobody's going to go home for a year and come back. Nobody could ever enforce that. Nobody in their right mind would ever try to do it.
Michael Bloomberg
I have my own army in the NYPD, which is the seventh biggest army in the world.
Michael Bloomberg
America was built by immigrants. Almost nobody that I know is any more than three generations, maybe four generations, American.
Michael Bloomberg
In 1975, Congress passed a law requiring fuel efficiency standards to double over 10 years, with incremental targets that auto manufacturers were required to meet. That was the responsible approach, and it worked. But since 1985, we've done nothing - even as technology has moved at light speed.
Michael Bloomberg
We have reduced poverty in the world by 50% since the year 1970 - the number of people who go to bed hungry, the number of people that have to sleep without a roof over their heads, the number of people that are illiterate.The world is better.
Michael Bloomberg
Is your company so small you have to do everything for yourself? Wait until you're so big that you can't. That's worse.
