Eventually I think Chicago will be the most beautiful great city left in the world.

I think one of the great problems we have in the Republican Party is that we don't encourage you to be nasty. We encourage you to be neat obedient loyal and faithful and all those Boy Scout words which would be great around a campfire but are lousy in politics.

I think in a way I invented the term 'fight club' and that these things have always existed but they never really had a label. Nobody had a language to apply to them. I created that language in two words and I've been paid a great deal of money for inventing two words and labeling something that has always been around.

A lot of people feel very good about Mitt Romney and I think he's going to do a great job.
