Everybody knows I return all of my phone calls. I pick up my cell phone myself, much to the chagrin of my staff.

From Joseph J. Lhota

I don't think the Port Authority does a good enough job in anything that they do, quite honestly, but clearly in the area of security. Those cops get paid more than N.Y.P.D. cops, and quite honestly - I know I'm going to get into trouble for saying this - they're nothing more than mall cops.

I was involved as deputy mayor in New York City on 9/11.

From Joseph J. Lhota

From Joseph J. Lhota
