Our enlisted are the backbone of our service, are exceptionally a bright group of men women.

I would immediately rejoin the Paris Accords and reassert U.S. leadership in the critical process of global diplomacy.

How do you govern by captaining the ship? How do you win without the trust of the crew?

If you lease a part of your soul in a campaign, Washington, D.C., and the establishment... will think they have an option to buy.

I don't think people need to worry about how I stand.

America can't go sideways anymore.

We must end semi-automatic weapons that are used for war. We don't want those in the streets of America and that's why I've got to go to the people on this, not just the elected representatives and Senate, just like I did in my district.

There are too many who have not shared in the benefits of this economy.

We were rugged individualists in the Navy, but we all had health care.

We can improve the military at less cost and with increased capability. It's not acceptable to keep investing in structure when we would be wiser to invest in dominating the new warfare domain of cyberspace.

Human rights in China should absolutely play a role in broader U.S. policy toward China. When we look the other way on fundamental issues of human rights, we are also responsible.

Collectively, we must find points of leverage in order to convince China to improve their treatment of Uighurs, Tibetans, and other minority groups, to ensure the autonomy of Hong Kong, and to continue to protect democracy in Taiwan, among other issues.

Certainly, the JCPOA was not a perfect agreement. It did not deal with the threat from Iranian missiles, or their support for violent extremism. And it contains a 'sunset clause,' meaning it expires after a decade. But it was accomplishing the one goal it set out to achieve: stopping Iran from developing nuclear weapons.

To be productive and focused, the rugged individuals in our economy need health security so that our country can remain competitive and agile in the changing economy.

Your U.S. military has the best child care in the nation. Full, paid family and medical leave benefits. Why aren't we doing that to empower our workforce?

I understand the challenge with student loans. But what about the labor force, the enlisted men and women, so to speak, of ships. Those who work with their hands and their minds. We need to do what we do in the military, is we train and retrain.

I don't want to be president if I have to win by outrage. I don't want to just win. I want to govern, and not just by executive order.

I'm not beholden to one party or any special interests.

I fought for the rule of law in America.

Trade is part of our national security.

What people in Washington worry about - they forget about the people. They forget the mission.

The Democratic Party isn't any good unless they know it's about people!

Economic mobility will fix income inequality.

People don't trust party leaders.

It's like I learned in the military: the officers always ate last. When you're responsible for people, that's how it should be.

A comprehensive approach to a two-state solution is not just, we believe, in Israel's interest. It's in our interest.

If you took money out of politics, you'd solve 80 percent of all the problems.

Yes, I'll stand up to the party if they're wrong and they aren't going the right way for people in Pennsylvania. But I do believe in Democratic principles.

I come from a background in the military where everyone had health care. We understood the value of education as a given. You learn a skill, earn a pension and go on to 'Be all that you can be'... You invest in people. You hold people accountable.

The career politicians down in Washington don't want to be held accountable.

My party needs to understand that business is not a bad word - especially when it has the word 'small' before it.

Unless you have bad times, you can't appreciate the good times.

Competing at the highest level is not about winning. It's about preparation, courage, understanding and nurturing your people, and heart. Winning is the result.

I am deeply saddened and shocked at the loss of umpire Wally Bell.

Baseball is a team sport played by individuals for themselves.

That's what I'd like to think that my reputation is - being honest.

I believe anybody who is not afraid to fail is a winner.

I have no problem with cheating. Whatever you can get away with.

You're always in the storm's eye, so to speak, when you're with the Yankees.

Baseball has changed dramatically since I began my tenure with the Yankees.

In regards to steroids, I think we're all to blame, all of baseball. I never realized how far-reaching this problem has been.

We've beat up our umpires. They're now allowed to be human.

Major league baseball is about the history of the game. Baseball history is so important. It's so much more than money.

Jerry Coleman was the kind of player who made me proud to wear the pinstripes.

As a supporter of the Prostate Cancer Foundation and their Home Run Challenge program, I am extremely grateful for the valuable partnerships and relationships built with Major League Baseball and our affiliates.

'Million Dollar Arm' touches on many of the Safe At Home Foundation's core values, such as children, teamwork and family.

If a club is winning, you never pay attention to a guy who's 0-for-10. If a club is losing, all of a sudden you'll find that he's the main reason why you're losing, which is absurd for me.

Baseball, while you're doing it, you think it's going to last forever.

You get to the big leagues, and you think, 'Can I do this stuff?' Then you take the first pitch down the middle for Strike 1, and you think, 'I could have hit that.'

Golf is the only game I know where you call a foul on yourself.
