New York is to the nation what the white church spire is to the village - the visible symbol of aspiration and faith, the white plume saying the way is up
On Tumblr, I'm really careful about not following too many things. I enjoy going on there to discover new things more than anywhere else now.
When I first went to New York I was right out of high school, I was 17 years old, and I had never seen a building over two stories high.
When you leave New York, you are astonished at how clean the rest of the world is. Clean is not enough.
When I was about 8 or 9, I lived in New Jersey with my mother and we were seven deep in one bedroom and sometimes we didn't have electricity.
Years ago, as I was beginning my professional career on Wall Street, I volunteered as a Big Brother in New York City.
(On her son) I've met writer's block. He is short, diapered and keeps unplugging my laptop. Good news: he can be conquered with a bottle and a nap.
Literally, I don't have a television. So I don't really know what's happening pop-culturally. I read the 'New York Times.' And there's one worldwide cabin blog that I look at.

The tradition and style of the 'New York Times' make it very difficult to have objective coverage of China. If we could purchase it, its tone might turn around.

One of the things I did when I was in New York, which has a wonderful deaf community, is I have worked on making Broadway more accessible to deaf people.
The results of a new study are out this week saying that New Jersey is one of the most livable states in the country. The study has a margin of error of 100 percent.
In New York, we had primary elections for mayor. To improve their chances, all five candidates changed their name to Rudy Giuliani.
I read the newspaper online. Mostly 'The New York Times.' I'll still buy papers if I'm getting on an airplane or the tour bus, though. I like physical things.
There's a ton of stories that can come out of L.A. I actually think that even though I enjoy being in New York more, I think that L.A. is a really fascinating place.
Like the hub of a wheel, the church’s corporate life is an extension of the good news that God was in Christ reconciling the whole world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them.
Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends... Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
What old people say you cannot do, you try and find that you can. Old deeds for old people, and new deeds for new.
