Overcrowding in the cities is producing a collective madness in which irrational violence flourishes because man needs more space in which to be than the modern city allows.

It's hard to kill a city, but easy to kill a company.

Big cities do evoke a sense of menace.

You cannot deal with a city if it's not socially integrated.

New York is full of crazy people, and I like that.
