Let's stop talking about new taxes and start talking about creating new taxpayers, which basically means jobs.
May the sun come, it's a new day; In the pure land of fantasy; That our darkness enlightened
In Boston they ask, how much does he know? In New York, how much is he worth? In Philadelphia, who were his parents?
I used to audition for 'NYPD Blue' quite a bit, so I had this stock New York detective character that I would bring in for all their auditions.
If you erased New York, I hate to say it, if you erased Frankfurt, even London, the world would not have changed.
People think New York is this big city where no one knows each other, but when you live in the Village, it's the opposite.
I think New York is the center of fashion, even though L.A. has a lot of heritage and the glamour of Hollywood.
I had very modest expectations when I first moved to New York. I didn't even expect to get a record deal.
Sometimes you must shed your skin to save it.
If you look at the various strategies available for dealing with a new technology, sticking your head in the sand is not the most plausible strategy.

The idea of 24-hour news, if you really step back, is pretty insane. Just even saying '24-hour news' almost has satire laced in it.
Physics is really figuring out how to discover new things that are counterintuitive, like quantum mechanics. It's really counterintuitive.

And it is always Easter Sunday at the New York City Ballet. It is always coming back to life. Not even coming back to life - it lives in the constant present.
I had my boy in Boston on Easter Sunday. That kills me, from a sports perspective. He's a Boston baby and I'm a New York guy.
I saw 'Six Degrees of Separation' because my brother was in it. It was a watershed experience. It was theatrical and scary, and New York functioned like a character. John Guare became a hero for me.
I think driving in New York is a great experience. A lot more racing techniques go into it than anyplace else I've ever driven. There basically are no lanes.
We have so much left to experience and learn about each other - it's almost like we've been remarried with the show being over. Now it's a whole new life for us.
I took many trips down to New Orleans trying to experience the city as deeply as possible. I'm from Detroit so New Orleans seemed very exotic to me.
I look at the human life like an experiment. Every new moment, every new experience, tragic or otherwise, is an opportunity to gain a more accurate perspective and helps lead me to clarity.
