Donald Trump

I wasn’t satisfied just to earn a good living. I was looking to make a statement.

My father was very energetic; my mother was very energetic. He lived to a very old age, and so did my mother. I believe that I just have it from my father, from my parents. They had wonderful energy.

We’re doing better economically just about than at any time. We’re doing better on unemployment maybe than ever. You know, I mean, if you look at the unemployment numbers, you’ve heard me say it. And we’re doing better on unemployment than just about ever.

I discovered, for the first time but not the last, that politicians don’t care too much what things cost. It’s not their money.

Anyone who thinks my story is anywhere near over is sadly mistaken.

I’ve been making deals all my life.

Higher education cannot be a luxury reserved just for a privileged few. It is an economic necessity for every family. And every family should be able to afford it.

Poorer students take out larger loans and will have to contribute more to the cost of higher education.

I call myself a teacher because they want me to call myself a teacher, but actually, what I’m doing is I’m studying.

If my future were determined just by my performance on a standardized test, I wouldn’t be here. I guarantee you that.

An educated person, I think, is one who not only knows a lot, but knows how to do a lot of things.

It doesn’t hurt to get more education.

America believes in education: the average professor earns more money in a year than a professional athlete earns in a whole week.

I never cut class. I loved getting A’s, I liked being smart. I liked being on time. I thought being smart is cooler than anything in the world.

In teaching the children at Greenfield Village, we are trying to get back some of the solid McGuffey qualities.

My one thing is I continue to be interested and want to be a student. I don’t want to be a master. When I’m learning something, I’m in my element.

God made the Idiot for practice, and then He made the School Board.

Education… has produced a vast population able to read but unable to distinguish what is worth reading.

Studying in countries like China isn’t only about your prospects in the global marketplace. It’s not just about whether you can compete with your peers in other countries to make America stronger. It’s also about whether you can come together and work together with them to make our world stronger. It’s about the friendships you make, the bonds of trust you establish and the image of America that you project to the rest of the world.

I’ve seen with my own students, community colleges offer an affordable route to four-year college degrees and good paying jobs.

Empower yourselves with a good education, then get out there and use that education to build a country worthy of your boundless promise.
