I can’t vote again ever, so political party is not a relevant thing for me.

They realize that spending millions to save billions is just good business.

I’m a hypercompetitive individual.

Being somebody who wants to be religious doesn’t make me perfect and doesn’t make me necessarily any better than anybody else. It maybe makes me better than I would have been if I didn’t have...

In my religion it’s actually better to know you’re doing wrong and try to improve that wrong than to think philosophically that what you’re doing is right and in fact it is wrong.

I did this within a philosophical framework, and a moral and legal framework. And I have been turned into a cartoon of the greatest villain in the history of lobbying.

This is really high on the priority list of tribal concerns. This is a cash cow in many circumstances, and tribes are concerned about protection of tribal assets.

I’m an aggressive person.

Class envy is dangerous.

In the past few years I have begun the process of becoming a new man.

I don’t pay much attention to sports.

Washington’s a dangerous place.

I’m not a complete libertarian. There is a proper role in some areas of the government to have rules and regulations – I’m not an anarchist.

Congress doesn’t hate Congress.

It’s very difficult for felons to live in society.

I got into lobbying kind of against my will at first. I frankly didn’t want to be a lobbyist, but I realized that in lobbying I could do things politically that were interesting to me...

Well, I don’t think most Americans are playing the super-PAC game. I think what you have is elites on both sides playing the super-PAC game.

A conservative is a liberal who’s been mugged, and a libertarian is a conservative who’s been indicted.

I’m not asking people to feel sorry for me.

Democrats don’t react the same way Republicans do, because they are not forced to react the same way Republicans are forced to react. They get to be as corrupt as, basically, they want, and just...

Lobbying is not a bad thing. I’m not trying to say that we shouldn’t have lobbyists or we shouldn’t have lobbying to petition our government. It’s in the Constitution, and it’s something that should be...

I know I’m intellectually capable of finding a series of things and making hundreds of millions. I have to get there and do it. Carefully. Legally.

Well, I think the great tragedy in American politics is what is legal, not what is illegal.

A senator will come off Capitol Hill and they’ll be barred from two years from lobbying in the Senate. So they’ll pick the phone up and they’ll call their buddy, the senator, their old buddies,...

I’m not exactly the endorsement people are seeking.

Everybody’s a complex person. Everybody. Everybody’s nuanced.

Many of my e-mails have been maliciously taken out of context, another effort by those assaulting my career.

I mean, money is a tool.

Well, I try to not view things through a prism of anti-Semitism, because often, people will use that as a sort of knee-jerk reaction to any criticism of Jews.

Access is vital in lobbying. If you can’t get in your door, you can’t make your case.

I’m not trying to become popular.

Having gone through what I went through, watching my family be torn to shreds and my children suffer immensely, I can’t be the agent of doing that to someone else. I can’t be the agent...

I might dream, but I am no dreamer.

When I arrived in prison, they locked the prison down that day because the media was all over the place.

All I have, really, is my creativity.

I’m trying to avail myself of the various technologies to get the message that Washington needs to be cleaned up, that the system that’s in place is not what’s beneficial in the country.

Human beings are weak.

One of my personality defects, perhaps, is that I’m rather ADD, and I work on a bunch of things at once.

I support myself by public speaking and trying to work on as many appropriate and legitimate ventures as I can.

Words will not be able to ever express how sorry I am for this, and I have profound regret and sorrow for the multitude of mistakes and harm I have caused.

All I want is for people not to see me as this cartoon monster.

If I read the articles about me, and I didn’t know me, I would think I was Satan.

I am much chastened and profoundly remorseful. I can only hope that the Almighty and those whom I have wronged will forgive me my trespasses.

The hope in radio is to build an audience over a number of years, a slow build to see if something works.

I think the American people deserve somebody telling them what is really happening in Washington.

You can’t beat somebody with nobody.

As a lobbyist, I thought it only natural and right that my clients should reward those members who saved them such substantial sums with generous contributions. This quid pro quo became one of hallmarks of...

If you chose to serve in Congress or on a congressional staff, you should be barred for life from working for any company, organization, or association which lobbies the federal government.

I believe in God.
