I've always had a dream about New York. New York is an island… those bridges… the skyline… the dynamism.
I was Mayor of New York during a great Yankees dynasty. I got to preside over the city during four Yankees championships.
When I first read Margaret Atwood's novel 'The Handmaid's Tale,' it was Saudi Arabia as I knew it that came to mind, not a dystopian future United States as in the new television adaptation.
The sun is new each day.
A woman can bring a new love to each man she loves, providing there are not too many.
Mom was 50 when my Dad died. She got on a bus every weekday for years, and rode 40 miles each morning to Madison. She earned a new degree and learned new skills to start her small business. It wasn't just a new livelihood. It was a new life.
I like to wake up each morning feeling a new man.
When I do an hour-and-a-half show, if I don't improvise 20 minutes worth of new material each night, I feel I've let myself down.
When you're on Broadway, what's kind of the whole point is that you find something new in the show each night.
You want to come home to a nice firm bed with the corners tucked in so you start over, like each night is like a new night.
I go to all these photo shoots, and each time I figure out something new about myself and what I want to wear.
South Africa has all the tools to compete in the new global village - an eager workforce, ready to take on any challenge.
As our culture redefines being a gamer, brand partners explore and wait eagerly on a new set of tools to better engage their potential clients.
Emerson stands apart from the other poets and essayists of New England, and of English literature generally, as of another order. He is a reversion to an earlier type, the type of the bard, the skald, the poet-seer.
The earliest books in the New Testament to be written were the Epistles, not the Gospels. It's almost as though Saint Paul and others who wrote the Epistles weren't that interested in whether Jesus was real.
'Living Single' was on in early 1990s - the show about Queen Latifah living with a bunch of friends. And then there's 'Friends,' and that's called the groundbreaking show about unmarried adults living in New York!
The older you get the more new memories get wiped out, and you end up remembering more about your early life than what you did last week.
'The Panorama' is also the last place anywhere in New York where the World Trade Center still stands, whole, as it stood in the early morning of September 11. I can also see the corner where I saw the first tower fall and howled out loud. Seeing the buildings again here is uplifting, healing.
I was pleasantly surprised with 'Salvage.' I went to Australia and New Zealand for the novel and met a lot of people who had experienced the earthquakes in Christchurch. They responded very strongly to the book because they had been through these natural disasters and were trying to figure out how to rebuild.
Philly is more East Coast than Pittsburgh. It's closer to New Jersey and New York, so the vibe is way more fast-paced.
