[My] dream writers room: "'Naked City.' Because it still holds up as the absolutely quintessential New York pure cop procedural."

Dick Wolf Producer

You’re not buying news when you buy The New York Times. You’re buying judgment.

Arthur Ochs Sulzberger Publisher

And, he'd seen me in Panama, and he talked about maybe doing something in New York so I hooked it up when I came here and I recorded in 1969 my first album with Pete Rodriguez.

Ruben Blades Singer

The crime problem in New York is getting really serious. The other day the Statue of Liberty had both hands up.

Jay Leno Comedian

New York! I've always wanted to see it and now I've see it. It's true what they say-- it's the most wonderful city in the world.

Betty Smith Author

I'm a black lady from the Lower East Side of New York. Not a lot intimidates me.

I think that at the end of the day I'm drawn to a certain level of ambiguous storytelling that requires hard thought and work in the same way that the New York Times crossword puzzle does: Sometimes you just want to put it down or throw it out the window, but there's a real rewarding sense if you feel like you've cracked it.

Damon Lindelof Television Writer

My whole childhood was filled with classical music and going to concerts of the New York Philharmonic and other New York ensembles and organizations, but interestingly, I didn't become conscious of wanting to be a musician until I was about 11. I was a rather late starter.

Gunther Schuller Composer

Many will say, "I can find God without the help of the Bible, or church, or minister." Very well. Do so if you can. The Ferry Company would feel no jealousy of a man who should prefer to swim to New York. Let him do so if he is able, and we will talk about it on the other shore; but probably trying to swim would be the thing that would bring him quickest to the boat. So God would have no jealousy of a man's going to heaven without the aid of the Bible, or church, or minister; but let him try to do so, and it will be the surest way to bring him back to them for assistance.

Henry Ward Beecher Minister

New York has always prided itself on its bad manners. That is the real source of our strength.
