I'm a big fan of small business ownership. I think it's the backbone of American innovation. But to be successful you first have to have the courage to go for it.

The business of America is business.

The success I have achieved in bodybuilding motion pictures and business would not have been possible without the generosity of the American people and the freedom here to pursue your dreams.

American business has just forgotten the importance of selling.

After all the chief business of the American people is business. They are profoundly concerned with producing buying selling investing and prospering in the world.

I have made the tough decisions always with an eye toward the bottom line. Perhaps it's time America was run like a business.

That business we started with 10 people has now grown into a great American success story.

And fifth we will champion small businesses America's engine of job growth. That means reducing taxes on business not raising them. It means simplifying and modernizing the regulations that hurt small business the most. And it means that we must rein in the skyrocketing cost of healthcare by repealing and replacing Obamacare.

Freedom. Freedom of religion. Freedom to speak their mind. Freedom to build a life. And yes freedom to build a business. With their own hands. This is the essence of the American experience.

If you were successful somebody along the line gave you some help... Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you've got a business - you didn't build that. Somebody else made that happen.

Be courageous. I have seen many depressions in business. Always America has emerged from these stronger and more prosperous. Be brave as your fathers before you. Have faith! Go forward!

Every day I get up and look through the Forbes list of the richest people in America. If I'm not there I go to work.

I was fired by 'America's Next Top Model' on my birthday.

The American flag is an enduring symbol of liberty democracy and justice. It is fitting that the House act to protect it as we approach our nation's birthday and as our men and women in uniform rally behind it in Iraq's battlefields.

The best way to begin genuine bipartisanship to make America stronger is to work together on the real crises facing our country not to manufacture an artificial crisis to serve a special interest agenda out of touch with the needs of Americans.

Patriotism is best exemplified through auto-critique. When you're willing to stand up within the group and say 'It is wrong for Black people to be anti-Semitic ' or 'It is wrong for America to discriminate against persons of African descent and made them slaves and based its wealth upon free labor ' it's crucial to say that.

I don't think there's anybody in America who thinks my personality is best suited to being Number Two.

We Americans are the best informed people on earth as to the events of the last twenty-four hours we are the not the best informed as the events of the last sixty centuries.

A lot of folks believe their best years are behind them. But I want Americans to recognize that's not true.

North Americans as a whole need to embrace having clothes altered to their body. I hear it all the time: why do the Europeans always look so good? They have a relationship with their tailor and spend the time and money to make their clothes look their best.

America is the best half-educated country in the world.

As an elder of the Americas and of the rest of the planet it is my responsibility to care for and protect to the best of my ability the young.

The Supreme Court has insulted you over and over again Lord. They've taken your Bible away from the schools. They've forbidden little children to pray. They've taken the knowledge of God as best they can and organizations have come into court to take the knowledge of God out of the public square of America.

As we look forward to freedom the shining city on the hill and the best days of America lying ahead it is the men and women in uniform who protect defend and make us proud to whom we should look and give thanks every night.
