One's a dog-eat-dog world, and the other one's just the opposite.
A feather will weigh down a scale when there is nothing in the opposite one.
People let their frustrations out on me. I love Kanye West. They say the opposite of that. But I'm not going to say that. I'm only going to say what I'm want to put into the universe.
They say seeing is believing, but the opposite is true. Believing is seeing.

We haven't had one leak about anything boorish, immature, childish, chaotic, incompetent that Trump has done on Middle East trip.
