Streets Quotes

I remember my own life as a small boy, son of Jewish immigrants, in a janitor’s flat on Orchard and Stanton streets on the Lower East Side of New York City. My father made pants and doubled as janitor of a tenement - before he made janitoring at $30 a month, plus rooms, a career Picture Quote #1

I remember being unemployed and walking the East Village streets for many years, constantly checking my voice mail on pay phones, hoping for an audition Picture Quote #1

I was eighteen, this was back in 46, so we also had these very frightening images of soldiers in the streets of Paris. So the effect of war, plus my shyness, plus my lack of education - I was afraid of men, really. It changes later, but it took me a certain time to adjust Picture Quote #1

During the late nights, try to walk in the empty streets with an empty mind! Light of wisdom will soon accompany you! Picture Quote #1

Be the ghost of the empty streets! You shall be crowned with the touch of great inspirations! Picture Quote #1

How was it possible that entire lives could change, could be destroyed, and that streets and buildings remained the same, she wondered Picture Quote #1

I have seen what the days of tribulation can do to people. I have seen hunger stalk the streets of Europe. I have witnessed the appalling, emaciated shadows of human figures. I have seen women and children scavenge army garbage dumps for scraps of food. Those scenes and nameless faces cannot be erased from my memory Picture Quote #1

I spend a fair bit of time in Los Angeles, and there is much I love about the place - the weather, the food, the beaches and the golf. And a few things I don’t.

Boxing kept me out of the streets, by giving me something to do. And it gave me a father figure in the coach that was there for me. I just reiterated what my mother was trying to teach me about focusing and getting my life together Picture Quote #1
