City Quotes

I grew up in a small town in West Virginia called Kenova. It’s the city where the plane crashed from Marshall University. I watched the mountain burn, and my cousins were the volunteer firemen. I was 6 years old at the time Picture Quote #1

I’ll tell you what makes me feel worthwhile: organizing and solving other people’s problems. It makes me feel good to go to Mexico City and figure out theories on how you can reorganize and reduce crime. To me, it’s one of the more fulfilling ways to spend a day Picture Quote #1

It’s just as easy to be lonely in a city as out in the wilderness. Easier, really. It’s harder to get to know someone when you meet in a crowded place.

When there are fewer people, (...) they begin assuming some kind of responsibility, simply because you naturally do the same Picture Quote #1

I think many people are not seeing the change. They`re really upset with the current situation. We haven`t seen a major American city go up like this in quite some time Picture Quote #1

In the 1970s, New York City defaulted on its debt, and yes, the consequences were painful. Enrollment plummeted at City University campuses, which until then had offered free education. Seven thousand police officers were laid off. Crime skyrocketed. Services for the poor disappeared Picture Quote #1

I came across humanity in Istanbul, and all I know about life comes from Istanbul, and definitely, I am writing about Istanbul.
