I'm from Brooklyn. In Brooklyn, if you say, 'I'm dangerous', you'd better be dangerous.

There's always elements of danger in New York, but people are always out on the street. I don't feel scared there at all.

My life in Brooklyn was in constant danger because of my bad health.

People are dangerous when they have nothing to lose.

A lot of my friends who grew up in Manhattan have a strange phobia about Brooklyn. It's big and scary and they get lost.

Nothing is more dangerous than a friend without discretion; even a prudent enemy is preferable.

Most anyplace one lives is essentially dangerous. There are floods in the Midwest, and tornadoes. There are hurricanes along the Gulf. In New York, you get mugged.

Danger is ever-present in life, more for some than others.

We live in a world where there are dangerous people, there are bad people.

People say New Yorkers can't get along. Not true. I saw two New Yorkers, complete strangers, sharing a cab. One guy took the tires and the radio; the other guy took the engine.
