"I was a typical tourist, staring up at the tall buildings, the yellow cabs, the incredible diversity of the people on the street. I wanted to explore every block, the art museums, discos, concert halls, restaurants, and stores. New York was pure adrenaline: big, bold, and loud."

"Much of what makes New York so worth visiting is included in the price of the ticket. It costs nothing to look. Nowhere else on earth is there so much (some beautiful, more ugly, but all fascinating) to look at. There is beauty in the mountainous buildings of Manhattan, seen from a distance over the water, either from the nickel-a-ride Staten Island Ferry (known, and rightly, as the biggest travel bargain in the world), or from Brooklyn Heights against the tangerine sky of evening."

"New York is a crazy city and America is a madhouse. Americans are crazy and I find that I'm crazy too."
