Quotes

Carl Icahn

  • If we don't get better corporate governance, we're going to lose our hegemony.
  • Many businesses in this country are terribly run. While there are a number of good board members, you've got some board members making $400,000 a year that are actually counterproductive. They're not going to go against their buddy [CEO] who put them there.
  • So maybe I'm not going to be Treasury Secretary. The least I can do is warn people about what's happening. And then I can say, "Hey, I told you so." And I'll still make money on it!
  • If the price is right, we are going to sell. I think that's true of everything you have, except maybe your kids and possibly your wife.
  • I'm like a gunfighter you hire to save the town. That gunfighter is there to do good. He know he's on the right side, and he's proud of it, but he'll only do what he does if he knows he'll get paid for it.
  • If you need a friend, get a dog.
  • I like Donald personally, but frankly I'm a little curious about the big deal about the name. If the Trump brand carried such a cachet, why did Trump properties keep going bankrupt?
