More quotes by Michael Bloomberg
When you go to Washington now, you can feel a sense of fear in the air - the fear to do anything, or say anything, that might affect the polls, or give the other side an advantage, or offend a special interest.
Michael Bloomberg
We haven't had a world war in a long time. We do have mass movements of people out of Syria and North Africa. But, fundamentally, if you take Japan, you're complaining that the economy isn't booming, they'd like to have slightly higher inflation.

Michael Bloomberg

Michael Bloomberg
Trees will improve property values, take pollutants out of the air, help with water runoff.
Michael Bloomberg
You know, if you look back in the 1930s, the money went to infrastructure. The bridges, the municipal buildings, the roads, those were all built with stimulus money spent on infrastructure. This stimulus bill has fundamentally gone, started out with a $500 rebate check, remember. That went to buy flat-screen TVs made in China.
Michael Bloomberg
We will rebuild, renew and remain the capital of the free world.
Michael Bloomberg
We should remember it wasn't so long ago that confidence in New York was in short supply.
Michael Bloomberg
If you think of all the publicity about the terrible tragedy of Virginia Tech, we have a Virginia Tech in this country every day. It's just spread across 50 states.
