York Quotes

I had my success too soon. Three books published with Scribners in New York before I was 30 Picture Quote #1

New York, oh my God, in my early 20s. I felt, this is home, this is really where I belong Picture Quote #1

I moved to New York with the derangement of love. I was writing all these terrible stories, but I had never been happier Picture Quote #1

I did not come from an academic background. My father was a smart man, but he had a fifth-grade education. He and all his friends were plumbers. They were all born around 1905 in great poverty in New York City and had to go to work when they were 12 or 13 years old Picture Quote #1

The attacks of September 11, 2001, were spectacular, riveting, grim, costly and searing. The shock that they caused reverberated throughout the world. What happened in New York and Washington and Pennsylvania ended the lives of thousands of people and changed the lives of many more. But they did not change the world Picture Quote #1

I had a friend write me that our music was being played at Gay Pride in New York, which is a big compliment. In the biggest city in the country with the most culture and the most grit - I love it Picture Quote #1

Looking at the Batman pages is like revisiting my youth. My first seven years in New York were the first seven years of Batman itself. While my time on Batman was important and exciting and notable considering the characters that came out of it, it was really just the start of my life Picture Quote #1

The first time I was given money to shop for myself, I was 13 and staying with my godmother in New York. I went to Clinique and bought the three-step acne programme and felt so grown-up Picture Quote #1
