What the New Yorker calls home would seem like a couple of closets to most Americans, yet he manages not only to live there but also to grow trees and cockroaches right on the premises.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Home is New York.
A New Yorker is anyone who has the guts to really live in the city.
To live in New York is to see the world as it is to come.
As I've always said, the way New Yorkers back us we have to produce for them.
I've lived my entire life in New York, and it informs everything.
New York is my home.
I live most of the time in New York now. I have an apartment there.
New York is an ugly city, a dirty city... But there is one thing about it. Once you have lived in New York and it has become your home, no place else is good enough.
When you grow up in the city, New York is so big that you can kind of stay in your own little corner of the city and think that that's it because you don't need anything. You don't have to venture out; you don't have to touch the boroughs. You can kind of stay in your neighborhood, and there's everything there.
New York is a place that can grind you down and spit you out. A true New Yorker doesn't get ground down - he gets polished.
