"Im terrified of waking up at 65 years old, which is getting closer, and to wake up and say I didnt do the things that I was supposed to do... as a citizen... As someone who is well-known, I... can help bring focus...

"The hardest thing is trying not to correct everything on the Internet. Itd be night and day—wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. So you just have to say, "All right, Ill take it, bring it on."

"We’re very generous people, Americans. We gave a billion a year with the Sudan to protect and help people after these tragedies. We’re going to be involved one way or another; we’re going to be there. It would be a lot better without spending a single dime, without costing any American lives — to get in there now with robust diplomacy, hard-core diplomacy, freezing assets, freezing bank accounts, doing everything we can to protect the people who want to vote for the right to freedom... If you knew a tsunami or Katrina or a Haiti earthquake was coming, what would you do to save people?"

"Yes, I think it’s an obscene amount of money. You know we had some protesters last night when we pulled up in San Francisco – and they’re right to protest, they’re absolutely right, it’s an obscene amount of money. The Sanders campaign, when they talk about it, is absolutely right, it’s ridiculous that we should have this kind of money in politics, I agree."
