New York City

Famous quotes containing the words york and/or city:

    It is often said that New York is a city for only the very rich and the very poor. It is less often said that New York is also, at least for those of us who came there from somewhere else, a city for only the very young.
    Joan Didion (b. 1934)

    Yet, when the city sleeps;
    When all the cries are still:
    The stars and heavenly deeps
    Work out a perfect will.
    Lionel Pigot Johnson (1867–1902)
