More quotes by Michael Bloomberg
You are safer here tonight than you would be on the streets of any other city in the world.
Michael Bloomberg
Millions of Americans have contributed to building a stronger Israel I've been proud to be one of them. Last year, I went to Jerusalem to help dedicate in my father's name a new MDA medical facility which treats people of all faiths and all nationalities absolutely equally.
Michael Bloomberg
I don't believe that government is good at picking technology, particularly technology that is changing. By the time you get it done and go through democracy, it's so outdated.
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
What chance does a five-foot-seven billionaire Jew who's divorced really have of becoming president?
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
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.
Michael Bloomberg
What goes on in Europe concerns us greatly because, if Europe comes apart, the E.U. comes apart, then you're going to have enormous impact on America, that's a very big trading partner of ours, and people own securities around the world in this day and age.
Michael Bloomberg
Look, we live in a very dangerous world. We know there are people who want to take away our freedoms. New Yorkers probably know that as much if not more than anybody else after the terrible tragedy of 9/11.
Michael Bloomberg
I don't know why you should be proud of something. It doesn't make you any better or worse. You are what you are.
Michael Bloomberg
Entrepreneurship is having an idea to do something great and not entirely have a plan on how to do it but the drive and will power to make it work
Michael Bloomberg
Working collectively and collaboratively is the difference between mediocrity by yourself or success as a team. You have to share the pain and the responsibility and if you do then you will also share in the rewards.
Michael Bloomberg
After hard work, the biggest determinant is being in the right place at the right time.
Michael Bloomberg
There is no accountability today... no willingness to focus on big ideas.
Michael Bloomberg
We're paying more for the privilege of getting sick and dying early. Once again, it makes no sense. And once again, no one in Washington is talking about how to fix it.
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
Like Israel, New York City's history has been defined by immigrants who come in search of freedom and the opportunity to build a better life. And like Israel, New York City has remained a target for terrorists who seek to destroy that freedom
Michael Bloomberg
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
You bet I did and I enjoyed it.
Michael Bloomberg
We should remember it wasn't so long ago that confidence in New York was in short supply.
Michael Bloomberg
