The core value that differentiates Apple is our ability to innovate.

You need a very, exceptionally clear vision. And to me, a vision is something that you can say in one sentence. The fewer the words the better.

The reason Apple is really good, I think, and the reason their stores succeeded, is not just 'cause we know the big idea, but we have a real passion for the littlest detail. It's legendary in our products.

All the time, you take a look at what government rules are, so you can minimize the impact of government regulations. That's just smart business.

Any individual that would be running for office, if they would say something that crosses a line and, in the end, is so significant, so major, that you couldn't support them, I'd have to withdraw support from any individual, okay?

Any president is going to need extremely good advisers.

I am the epitome of a citizen legislator.

I believe the U.S. has been way too silent on the brutality, the lack of human rights in the Muslim world for women.

I don't like outside group ads. I don't like attack ads. I particularly don't like them now that I'm in the process and they are being used against me.

I don't respect phoniness.

I don't think we can do anything about controlling what our climate is.

I guess when you take a look at the book 'Atlas Shrugged,' I think most people always like to identify with the main character - that would be John Galt. I guess I identify with Hank Rearden, the fella that just refused until the very end to give up.

I have a great deal of respect for Wisconsin workers.

I have to - I think an endorsement is something incredibly important. I would never do it just strategically. I would have to have full confidence that I have got no questions about the person.

I realize the voters elected President Obama in 2012, but they also, in 2014, elected enough Republican senators to gain a majority in the Senate, so we control the confirmation process. And these are two supposedly coequal branches of government involved in this filling of a Supreme Court vacancy.

I really don't think that the public-sector employees should be unionized.

I think it's unrealistic for public-sector employees to believe that they are immune from modifications to their pay and benefit packages.

If we weren't running deficits, if we weren't spending more than we were taking in, there would be no reason whatsoever to increase the debt ceiling.

If you do things well one at a time, you end up in a really good place. Don't get ahead of yourself. Control the things you can.

If you manage things properly - and, listen, I'm a business guy. I've got to prioritize spending in all my business career to prevent my business from going bankrupt. The federal government has got to start doing that eventually as well.

If you're an Islamic terrorist, probably the last program I'd use to try to get into this country is the refugee program.

If you're looking for a metric that we have to measure, that we have to control, it's government in relation to the size of our economy.

In 2010, there were 57 lawyers, zero manufacturers, and way too many career politicians in the United States Senate.
