"Look it. Its, lets face it, it its easy to joke about Dr. Oz. I mean, some of these remedies hes pushed on TV - the raspberry ketones and the lavender soap and the palm oil for dementia. But you know what? That matters. Because if somebody who knows better, who knows better, is willing to sell snake oil just to make money, then hes gonna be willing to do anything and say anything to get elected. Even if its not good for you. And Pennsylvania, you deserve someone thats thats honest with you. You deserve somebody who cares about you. You deserve somebody who will tell you what they really think, what they really believe. That wont be looking to see what Donald Trump tells them they should be doing or thinking because its expedient. Somebody whos gonna work for you every day and fight for you."

"The only question my father ever asked me was: Did anyone do better than you? If I came home, proud and excited, with a ninety-seven on an exam, he would ask if somebody got a higher grade. And if George or Tom got a ninety-eight then I might as well have failed. When I made all-state football, which was a big deal for me, he didn’t ask me what it was or comment on it. He thought sports were a distraction. When his friends congratulated him at work the next day, he didn’t know what they were talking about."

"Your genetics load the gun. Your lifestyle pulls the trigger."

"I understand that people in Turkey get angry with White House’s decisions and anti-Americanism has increased; but I think at least for a couple of years Turkey should tolerate the US’s behavior; because even today the majority in America thinks that Islam is a kind of a religion like it is lived in Afghanistan, Iran or Saudi Arabia. However, the Islam there is not the same as hearing from my uncle what the prophet did or going to the [sic] saying prayers or learning about the teachings of religion. I think this is why the Americans have moved rather towards a more fundamentalist attitude. The Americans will find the way to the center from the edges eventually. America is a nation that has helped the world in the last 100 years; of course they made some mistakes, like other countries did; but they like the Turks and support them."

"Most allopathic doctors think practitioners of alternative medicine are all quacks. Theyre not. Often theyre sharp people who think differently about disease."

"Teddy Roosevelt to me was the ideal Republican. He was someone who felt strongly about the need for individuals to make the place work better without having someone tell them how to do it. But they had an obligation to do that as well. It wasn’t a favor for the country; it was an obligation as Americans."
