NYC sophisticationThere are so many things to be said about New York City. Below is a list of some of my favorite quotes:

New Yorkers, kidding“When you leave New York, you ain’t going anywhere.” – Jimmy Breslin

“New York City: It’ll rob you and cheat you. It’ll take your friends and turn them on you. It’ll kick your ass and break your heart, But then it’ll pick you up again, make you feel so totally alive and untouchable. It’s the center of the world, it’s the best place in the world, and once it’s in your heart, it’ll never leave you.” – Unkown

“One belongs to New York instantly. One belongs to it as much in five minutes as in five years.” – Thomas Wolfe

“Practically everybody in New York has half a mind to write a book — and does.” – Groucho Marx

“Make your mark in New York and you are a made man.” – Mark Twain
