"Congress gets this phenomenon. It is like last week's calm district work period before now facing a month of unpredictable governance in the House."

"I think that is what Wall Street does, and it is a good thing, but I do not know that we can look to that as necessarily a positive sign."

"Look, commercial property owners take risks, and losing money is one of them, but when the whole market crashes, that causes a problem that hurts all of us."

"The government should have seen it coming. Why didn't we? Maybe because Congress was negligent during the calm."
