I'm kind of a closet redneck.

I know my father can make a difference.

I think, like anyone else, I made my mistakes.

He [Donald Trump] wasn`t softening on anything.

I've broken probably every major bone in my body.

If I could miracle myself away, I would live out West.

I have no middle wardrobe. I go from the suit to jeans.

You’ve already lost the battle if you’re afraid to fight.

There's nothing that I would do to ever endanger this country.

Some people like to paint and sing. We like to create and build.

When you have the opportunity to do something, you have to jump on it.

I may be one of the last New Yorkers who actually drives in the city daily.

Russians make up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets.

When we do deals, it's not, 'Ah, it's a million bucks, who cares?' The penny means something.

In our family, if you weren't competitive, you didn't eat. You had to fight for what you wanted.

The hard-working Americans, the people who made this country so great, they've been left in the dust.

My wife and I like to cook, so we actually prepare our own meals often and can hold our own in the kitchen.

I think politics is a dirty game. We've seen the sides that they take; we've seen the commentary they have had on my father.

We'd be in his office playing with trucks as a six-year-old while he's negotiating deals with presidents of major companies.

Look: invest in what you understand, what's foreseeably going to offer real value and returns, not necessarily what's trendy.

I'm pretty certain that I'm the only son of a billionaire who can drive a D10 Caterpillar better than I can drive a golf cart.

It wasn't a typical 'Let's go play catch in the backyard' sort of father-son relationship. We always went to job sites with him.

I say that in jest a little bit, but Donald Trump is a blue collar guy with a balance sheet. That's the way he likes to have fun.

If you can't handle some of the basic stuff that's become a problem in the workforce today, then you don't belong in the workforce.

My father is a straight- talking guy. He's always been. He has a history of that in business as a personality for the last 35 years.

I think we are just so far away from the political elite. Whether you are on one side or the other, you're still part of that group.

I think people are often surprised, but I never defined myself as, 'I'm the business guy who has to supersede what my father has done.'

This country has had 200 years of hegemony over the rest of the world, and it feels like our politicians, they just want to give that back.

I don't know if it's genetic or just because I was surrounded by it, but I was always fascinated with building and construction and development.

I avoided the spotlight when I was a kid. I always knew, 'Hey, it wasn't me. I didn't do anything.' If there was a camera around, I hid from it.

If I want to hand one of my old shotguns that I've had for 50 years to my grandkid one day, I have to go through a federal transfer? It's crazy.

My father is a very hardworking guy, and that's his focus in life, so I got a lot of the paternal attention that a boy wants and needs from my grandfather.

What Donald Trump is going to bring to the table. He's going to bring straight, honest conversation and bring up topics that, while they may be sensitive, they have to be said.

My father's not the type of person that teaches you by saying, 'Come here, son. I'm going to tell you about real estate.' You learn by watching it. If you don't pick it up, it's your problem.

I was following my dad around from a young age. I don't know if it's genetic or just because I was surrounded by it, but I was always fascinated with building and construction and development.

We've gotten to a point where you can't be a politician and actually say what you're thinking because someone's gonna get offended, and God forbid, like, everyone's so sensitive now, it's ridiculous.

To me, what defines a New Yorker is the edge that one develops from having actually lived here. Once you have it, it doesn't go away, and everywhere else in the world feels like it is in slow motion.

So many people, you know, they're just worried about, you can't say something bad about Obama, not because you actually have a strong stance against his platform, but because that makes you a racist.

Why can you get a driver's license that is recognized state-to-state but a concealed weapons permit is not treated the same? There is a process to do that in a Trump administration because it makes sense.

What's great about my father is that, because we've been involved in the business from such a young age, he's given us - and we've earned - autonomy, and he's given us the rope to go out and grow the brand.

I've broken probably every major bone in my body. I currently have, in my body, fifteen pins and a plate. I've broken my femur, both wrists, both ankles - my left ankle twice. My tibia. Tore my rotator cuff.

Rob Goldstone is a talent manager for Emin Agalarov, who's an Azerbaijani Russian singer who performed at Miss Universe and later performed at the WGC championship golf course tournament that we held at Doral.

It's been a process of evolving within a family company to get the autonomy I now have from a boss like my father. If you're sitting there waiting for a pat on the back, you're going to be waiting a long time.

When I was growing up, and other people I knew were getting into trouble, I was somewhere in a deer stand or going to bed early so I could be up before dawn to hunt turkeys. My love of the outdoors kept me solid.

We always speak very bluntly with father [Donald Trump]. But in the end I think the things that he's saying are things that need to be said. They're conversations that need to be had. There conversations that haven't been had.

Did I meet with people that were Russian? I'm sure, I'm sure I did. But none that were set up. None that I can think of at the moment. And certainly none that I was representing the presidential campaign in any way, shape or form.

I know when my father [Donald Trump] puts his mind to something he's going to do a phenomenal job with it. He's a great businessman. He has an incredible track record. And I know he understands what this country needs and what it wants.

People talk, 'Oh your father's a misogynist, look what he said about women,' like, on 'Howard Stern.' When he gets with Howard Stern, who's a friend of his, he'll joke around, because it's a comedy show. He's allowed to have a personality.

I've always been the, 'Sure, I'll try that' guy. I'm very adventurous and don't have fears. I think I got that from my mother's side because she was an Olympic skier. Jump off a mountain with a parachute? Sure. What could possibly go wrong?

My father knows more about sports than any human being out there. He relaxes. The ribbing that we give each at the Christmas holidays is incredible. He's much more of an ordinary American and a proper American than a lot people would probably ever believe.
