I can’t write about rich people having relationship problems and breaking up in New York. I don’t know that world of Terrence McNally. I knew I had to write people who talk the way I talk. And they talked very different than Terrence McNally Picture Quote #1

Dad always encouraged my singing, so when ‘Don’t Go Breaking My Heart’ was a hit in the States, I flew my parents to New York first-class to see me, put them up at the Waldorf Astoria, then they sailed home on the QE2 Picture Quote #1

A couple of websites I’ve come across credit the ‘New York Times’ for reporting that 12,000 women a year are arrested for breastfeeding in public. I could not confirm that number with a quick search, but even 1,200 would be too many - or even 12 Picture Quote #1

Better a square foot of New York than all the rest of the world in a lump - better a lamppost on Broadway than the brightest star in the sky Picture Quote #1

I really wouldn’t want to live in America. I found New York claustrophobic and dirty. I missed England when I was there, simple things like smells and the British sense of humor Picture Quote #1

I remember seeing ‘Hairspray’ when I was 15, and it is such a luxury to be able to see a Broadway show, and it is so hard to do if you don’t live in New York - plus, it can be expensive to go to the theatre all the time, too Picture Quote #1

When I was 12, I did this show on Broadway called ‘High Society,’ so we moved to New York for the run of that Picture Quote #1

The people I idolized I saw once a year on the Tony Awards. I would buy the cassette tapes of the various Broadway shows and scour the photos inside the recording package. That’s how I exposed myself to the arts - New York and professional theater felt like a very distant thing Picture Quote #1

My interest in acting came from seeing Broadway shows on summer trips to New York as a child. It was the original production of ‘A Chorus Line’ in an easy tie with the first 10 -15 minutes of Dustin Hoffman in ‘Tootsie’ that hooked me on the romantic idea that the impossible, difficult life of a struggling actor was for me Picture Quote #1

The available divorce data show that marital breakdown is now considerably more common in the Bible Belt than in the secular Northeast. . . . The percentages of broken families and unwed mothers remained higher in places like Arkansas and Oklahoma than in New York and Massachusetts Picture Quote #1

I love to walk around New York. Honestly, that’s like the best thing, to walk over to Park Slope and go visit my friend Betty and take her dog out in the park or go walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. I really dig being outside and getting to see everybody in the street Picture Quote #1

I saw ‘Six Degrees of Separation’ because my brother was in it. It was a watershed experience. It was theatrical and scary, and New York functioned like a character. John Guare became a hero for me Picture Quote #1

Music was in the air when I was growing up. My siblings Katy, Dave and Phil were musical; my dad worked in inner-city New York where a musical revolution was taking place - folk music, rock n’ roll, gospel music. My sister taught me to sing. My brothers taught me to play Picture Quote #1

When I first played New York, it was with James Brown at the Apollo, and I was playing in a band under the name The Valentinos. I remember Sam Cooke saying, ‘I want you to go in there with James Brown. I couldn’t be as hard on you as James Brown would be.’ But we came out marching like soldiers Picture Quote #1

There’s no such thing as the United Nations. If the U.N. secretary building in New York lost 10 stories, it wouldn’t make a bit of difference Picture Quote #1

When I first came to New York City, what I was thrilled about was not the Empire State Building, or the Statue of Liberty; it was the fireplugs in the street. These things that Jack Kirby had drawn. Or these cylindrical water towers on top of buildings that Steve Ditko’s ‘Spider-Man’ fights used to happen in and around Picture Quote #1

Living in New York after 14 years, I’m such an outdoors kind of person. I love gardening and building things. I like restoring old furniture Picture Quote #1

I came to New York when I was eighteen years old, and the first audition that I ever went to was this huge cattle call at the Equity building where I had gone two days earlier to sign up - I didn’t have an agent or anything. It was for ‘Chicago.’ There were probably three hundred people there Picture Quote #1

I remembered what she’d told me in New York, about building something permanent, and I thought - just maybe - we were off to a good start Picture Quote #1

I once drove a pair of horses from New York to Vicksburg, and to this day I can almost map out that country as I saw it then, with its hills and valleys, villages and rivers. Yes, I naturally attribute something of my success in railroad building to the interest I take in such things Picture Quote #1

Often the art in New York is related to the buildings, to grandiose things Picture Quote #1

I don’t use any real vintage hardware any longer. That’s always been the object as far as gaining control of the studio environment, going back to when I built my first studio, Secret Sound, in New York City. The whole point was to not have to pay studio bills anymore and not be looking at the clock Picture Quote #1

I realize that the New York Times probably not written for the express purpose of driving me mad; I think of it as liberalism’s daily bulletin board Picture Quote #1

If I had been straight, I would have been an entirely different person. I would never have turned toward writing with a burning desire to confess, to understand, to justify myself in the eyes of others... I wouldn’t have been impelled to live in New York and choose the hard poverty of bohemia over the soft comfort of the business world Picture Quote #1

I came to the U.S. in 1994 to learn English and go to business school, but I took only a few business courses at the State University of New York at Albany and didn’t finish Picture Quote #1
