I have long said there are three distinct groups under the GOP's tent: theological warriors who want to impose their social views on the rest of society Tea Party zealots who say with a straight face that they want the government to get out of their Medicare and remnants of the pro-business moderates.

Government cannot do it all. As we work hard to break welfare dependency and get young people ready for the labour market we need businesses to give them a chance and not just fall back on labour from abroad.

The truth is in California you can't build a new manufacturing facility and businesses are leaving in droves because of bad government policy.

The guy keeps making speeches about redistribution and maybe we ought to do something to businesses that don't invest their holding too much money. We haven't heard that kind of talk except from pure socialists. Everybody's afraid of the government and there's no need soft peddling it it's the truth. It is the truth.

Ours is a government of checks and balances. The Mafia and crooked businessmen make out checks and the politicians and other compromised officials improve their bank balances.

Unfortunately President Obama's failed policies of new regulations higher taxes and Obamacare and his anti-business rhetoric have hit Hispanics especially hard. Big government really hurts those who are trying to make it.

Hispanic unemployment is higher than the national average and when the federal government is killing small businesses and killing jobs it is hurting the future of the Hispanic community and we need to carry that message.

We kinda look at this as the second or third chapter of our lives. After college most people figure out what they want to do with their lives. But we already know what we want to do in the future and that is to continue to further our business goals.

I have a funny family but none of them are remotely in show business.

You know the funny thing about Lorne and that show is that you can go over one million things but in a business of bean counters he still likes to laugh at small things and creates a show around it.

I know I was a great friend to Tiger Woods. But when you have a relationship that's involves business and friendship - and the business part comes to an end - things always get a little blurry.

During the 1950s Aristotle Onassis and I formed what grew to be a close friendship and association in several business ventures.

In recent years personal injury attorneys and trial lawyers have attacked the food industry with numerous lawsuits alleging that these businesses should pay monetary damages to those who of their own accord consume too much of a legal safe product.

What we are trying to do is to create a social business in Bangladesh a joint venture to create restaurants for common people. Good healthy food at affordable prices so that people don't have to opt for food that is unhealthy and unhygienic.

Men can absent themselves from real life for their art more easily. Women are anchored into the quotidian business of getting food on the table making sure everybody's socks match the soccer gear is ready. I admire idealists but they're usually enabled by someone who holds the tether on their balloon who pays the bills and sweeps up after them.

Anybody who finds it easy to make money on the horses is probably in the dog food business.

My mom who's been in the restaurant business for 40 years is the number-one influence in my life. But I look up to a lot of people in the industry. Tops on my list is Mario Batali. My mom and Mario taught me the same lesson: Food is love.

If my daughter wants to get into this business I would support that decision. She's going to have a hard time not being in it. She loves food and she's around it all the time.

There are similarities between business and sport in the pressures involved and in the fitness aspect too.

It is usually people in the money business finance and international trade that are really rich.

And I think it's a prudent responsible way given the scale of the emergency the scale of the damage still facing America that we finance these additional support for the unemployed as well as the support for small business. We think there's a good case for doing it now. We want to do it in an overall fiscally responsible way.

To finance this trade deficit the U.S. has to borrow from the rest of the world or sell American assets like stocks businesses and real estate to the rest of the world.

Small- and medium-sized businesses need access to a diverse range of finance options including non-bank lending. These new forms of finance are still small in scale today but they should over time bring additional choice and greater competition to the lending market.

In 1973 women got 59 cents on the dollar now we are getting 74 cents on the dollar. In the area of finance and business we are at 68 cents on the dollar.
