Text Quotes
I was enamored of New York City intellectual life and was really into Philip Roth because I was raised by self-loathing Midwesterners who were from southern Illinois, who felt like fish out of water when they came to the East Coast when I was a kid.  (York Quotes) New York has an amazing history of farming and fishing that goes right back to the Pilgrim Fathers. At its core are the four seasons, which are distinct, well-established and similar to those in Lyon, where my family lives: when it’s snowing in New York, a week later it will be snowing there.  (York Quotes) Five years ago, I wasn’t getting questions [about blogs and the internet] from the TV/radio critic of the New York Times.  (York Quotes) One of my really good friends in New York is a musician and looks just like Lindsay Buckingham. We always fancied ourselves the nice Fleetwood Mac.  (York Quotes) I could never leave Las Vegas. I can’t really afford New York or Los Angeles. I love this town. We don’t have that much. We have the Runnin’ Rebels and boxer Floyd Mayweather. When Mayweather fights, it’s good for the whole city. It’s like the Super Bowl out here.  (York Quotes) As a chef, I had started working with groups like Share Our Strength and various local food banks in New York, raising money for hunger-related issues. And not only me, but the entire restaurant industry has been very focused on this issue.  (York Quotes) The Food Network’ was just starting in New York, and I was getting lots of attention from Mesa Grill. They had no money, so if you couldn’t get there by subway, you couldn’t be on. It wasn’t like TV was something I really wanted to do - but I knew it would be great publicity for my restaurants.  (York Quotes) On many days my primary artistic struggle is, in fact, photography because it is harder to do good work with that. I see myself as an observer of the world who has a strong drive to testify, which I can do because I have the privilege of living in New York with enough food to eat and shelter.  (York Quotes) New York has arguably become the quintessential 1 percent city, a city that has been so given over to the rich that you now have to be rich to live here. Or not live here: New York’s also a preferred destination for foreign money spent on vast, lifeless apartments in the sky that are occupied a couple of weeks a year at most.  (York Quotes) The country’s present supply of foreign news depends largely on how best a number of dry goods merchants in New York think they can sell underwear.  (York Quotes) New York is not going to be a foreign place to me. They didn’t revoke my visa.  (York Quotes) New York has surprised me a couple of times. I was a snob about pizza, but I’ve found one or two places that allow me to forget deep dish for a while.  (York Quotes) It’s illegal to be gay in Little Rock - this is such a reality for so many people, but once people get to these bubbles of New York or L.A. or Boulder, Colorado, they forget.  (York Quotes) I got my story, my dream, from America. The hero I had is Forrest Gump... I like that guy. I’ve been watching that movie about 10 times. Every time I get frustrated, I watch the movie. I watched the movie before I came here again to New York. I watched the movie again telling me that no matter whatever changed, you are you.  (York Quotes) I did nine months in ‘Mrs. Klein’ in New York, then four months on the road. Then I did a movie directed by Philip Haas, who did ‘Angels and Insects’. We shot ‘The Blood Oranges’ in Mexico for six weeks.  (York Quotes) In Hong Kong there is agglomeration beyond my fondest imaginings. The Kowloon district claims a population density four times that of New York City.  (York Quotes) I was born in New York City in 1926, four years after my parents and my brother migrated to the United States from the city of Odessa in Russia.  (York Quotes) There are three or four places in the country where people think of fashion: One is L.A., obviously. Another is New York. And I think Atlanta has to be in the top five cities where fashion is very big.  (York Quotes) I wasn’t an academic looking in books for ideas. But I educated myself about historical work that was similar to mine, to provide a frame of reference that wasn’t the usual frame of reference of the New York art world and Europe.  (York Quotes) The New York that Frank Sinatra sang about, people will never know that place. The New Orleans that Louis Armstrong sang about is the New Orleans that’s still there - it’s preserved.  (York Quotes) Mark Twain married the daughter of one of New York State’s leading Abolitionists, Jervis Langdon, who helped Frederick Douglass who became the great Negro leader to escape from slavery.  (York Quotes) I got to Broadway a year after I came to New York. I starred in ‘Butterflies Are Free’ and got a Tony for it. Right out of the gate. Maybe that’s why I wasn’t very gracious about it. I wasn’t driven. And right after ‘Butterflies Are Free’, I got married and then started a family. I always wanted that.  (York Quotes) I grew up a little north of New York City and went to high school at Regis, an all-boys tuition-free high school in Manhattan.  (York Quotes) New York has always been a sense of eclectic kind of freedom and expression on a lot of different levels.  (York Quotes) I come from the New York theatre world, and I have a lot of gay male friends, so this friendship of Will and Grace’s isn’t such a stretch.  (York Quotes) I loved it. I just thought I wanted to stay in college forever. I came to New York all by myself; I didn’t have any friends there. But it was fine. I felt comfortable. I started thinking, ‘Maybe graduate school?’ I was really cool with people who were smart, who knew stuff. It’s very romantic and stimulating.  (York Quotes) I don’t actually keep the dresses I’ve worn during other friends’ weddings. Closets are small in New York City - I can’t be squandering space on bridesmaid dresses.  (York Quotes) The film itself involves a New York City radio storyteller, Gabriel Noone, who strikes up a friendship with one of his fans, an abused 14-year-old teenager who is suffering from AIDS, who does not have much longer to live.  (York Quotes) New York is a fascinating city. I think it’s a very inspiring city, but it’s overpowering when you get older. It tires me now. But it’s wonderful for young people - very inspiring and full of surprises and full of ideas.  (York Quotes) I sat in at every club in New York City, jamming with musicians, because it felt right - and because it felt right and we were having fun - the people dancing and sipping their drinks in the clubs felt it too and it made them smile.  (York Quotes)
