City Quotes

I love Mexico because that’s where I’m from, but my favorite city, whenever I need to recharge, I love Paris. I get very inspired while I’m there. There’s so much art and culture, and Paris, before New York, that was the capital of the world. And I love history too, so I go there. It does something special to me Picture Quote #1

When people say that L.A. doesn’t have a culture, I think it really does: a very old culture, and very specific. There’s streets named after entertainers, and statues of entertainers, and it’s great. Entertainment is still art, even if it makes billions of dollars. So it’s like a city built on entertainment, and art in a way Picture Quote #1

Toronto may be the only city where novels are integral to high art, the alternative scene and mainstream culture all at the same time Picture Quote #1

My mum was a dancer when she was a kid. Then my parents met and eventually had an art gallery; my dad taught himself how to frame pictures, and then he was a curator at an art gallery in the city I’m from. I’m an only child Picture Quote #1

There is no right or wrong way of giving. People in Los Angeles have made major contributions in different ways to the city: Eli Broad to art. David Geffen to hospitals. I’m not judgmental Picture Quote #1

I’ll just say this. There was no way we were going to lose at home on this day in this in this city for all those people Picture Quote #1

With the development of the web everything is instantaneous. Everything is about how quick you can get it. So with online gambling you don’t have to travel to Vegas, Atlantic City, or anywhere in the world to gamble Picture Quote #1

They have no allegiance to Atlantic City whatsoever, other than nostalgia, and that doesn’t pay the bills, ... The Miss America pageant has to do what it thinks best serves its interests, and if moving out of Atlantic City does, that’s what it should do Picture Quote #1

If Mother Theresa went to Atlantic City, I don’t think she’d start playing Blackjack Picture Quote #1

I could’ve always worked shows, clubs, Las Vegas and Atlantic City, but I was successful in business ventures, and things weren’t happening in show business, so I said, ‘Let me see what I can do.’ Picture Quote #1

Economies are risky. Some industries rise, and others implode, like housing. Some places get richer, and others drop, like Atlantic City. Some people get new jobs that pay better, many lose their jobs or their wages Picture Quote #1

I was actually born in New York City, but my family moved to Atlantic City when I was five, this being my dad’s home town, so I think that qualifies me as a Jersey resident if not a bona fide native Picture Quote #1

I’ve enjoyed appearing in Atlantic City. East Coast audiences are a bit brighter than Las Vegas audiences. I think most entertainers will tell you the same thing. The East Coast audiences are more perceptive - especially when it comes to a performer with a theatrical background Picture Quote #1

Possible outfits rolled in her head like a slot machine in Atlantic City Picture Quote #1

If ‘Star Wars’ wasn’t enough to prepare me for a dark future, there was the ‘Planet of the Apes’ franchise, conveniently repeated for me in Los Angeles on KABC’s Channel Seven 3:30 movie. Apes enslaving humans! Mutants with boils and an atom bomb! Ape riots in Century City! They killed baby Caesar’s parents! Picture Quote #1

My piece in One World or None was the description of the effect of a single atomic bomb on New York City Picture Quote #1

Animals speak with pure affection. It’s important to me to get something going in NY so we can get to be a no-kill city, and give the animals homes and more attention and love Picture Quote #1

All children of cosmonauts went to one school. We all lived in the same neighborhood, Star City, and all of us, children of cosmonauts, were in the center of attention from the teachers and general inhabitants of the Star City, and so it was difficult in that respect Picture Quote #1

Just in time for Bob Dylan to recoil from the attention, leave the city for Woodstock, and turn his back on fame Picture Quote #1

I love that Toronto is demonstrating that a big, highly diverse, multicultural city can actually work and work well, if its residents have the attitude of Torontonians Picture Quote #1

In a city, it’s very hard to do a restaurant, an avant-garde-cuisine restaurant, where each year you need to change the whole menu Picture Quote #1

I’ve been quite fascinated by the relative insignificance of human existence, the shortness of life. We might as well be a letter in a word in a sentence on a page in a book in a library in a city in one country in this enormous universe! And that kind of fear and insignificance has kept me awake at night Picture Quote #1

It’s fun when you are on tour to go a place you are familiar with in any given city. It’s like being home away from home Picture Quote #1

Authorities in New York City have foiled a plot by terrorists to blow up the Holland Tunnel. There was one awkward moment when officials informed President Bush the Holland Tunnel was safe. Bush then thanked the Dutch authorities for all their help Picture Quote #1

A very awkward situation occurs often in New York City when you are walking down a relatively empty sidewalk and there happens to be a person walking right next to you in the same direction as you at the exact same pace as you. I never know whether to pass or draft. It becomes sort of a strange competition Picture Quote #1

I really don’t know the Chicago School. You see, I never walk. I always take taxis back and forth to work. I rarely see the city Picture Quote #1

Despite some standout events, 2012 was demoralizing. The Met felt adrift, and New York City Opera couldn’t claw its way back to artistic health Picture Quote #1

My shoulder will never be the same. I expect you to nurse me back to health. - City of Bones (said by Jace Wayland) Picture Quote #1

The reality is this city will not be the same for a while, ... We’re not saying bring New Orleans back today Picture Quote #1
