Quote

I'm a simple small 'c' conservative who believes in public service, serving others, and doing a good job for my country.

I have a lifelong devotion to public service.

I'm a public servant. And I work for the American people.

I have had a career in public service.

I want to serve my country, but not necessarily in the political arena.

I was raised in a family dedicated to public service.

I was born into public service.

I'd like to have another opportunity to serve. I believe in service. I enjoy it. I also like coming and going, you know, because I think that my private-sector life has contributed to how I think about public-sector challenges and what I do in the public sector.

I ran for political office in the Hamptons once in a war I was having with the village. I came in, there were four people running, and I came in around third. It was over my food market - they arrested me. I just wanted to go for office because I thought it would be an interesting to do.
