Description

This imaginative collection of quotations describes, for better or worse, New York City from the 16th century to the present. Supplied by writers, poets, statesmen, artists, composers, educators, politicians, actors, sportsmen, musicians, scientists, travelers, and others, the quotations capture the spirit of the ever-changing city. The book includes a subject index and a chronological index. “The trouble with New York is it’s so convenient to everything I can’t afford.” “There are two million interesting people in New York, and only seventy eight in Los Angeles.” “It is ridiculous to set a detective story in New York City, New York City is itself a detective story.”
