City Views

New York City includes over 8 million residents, thousands of businesses, and is a major financial and cultural center.  It is the focus of myriad story lines; both fictional and true.  It contains vast wealth and crushing poverty; beauty and decrepitude; opportunity and exploitation.

So, when I researched famous quotes about New York City, it was no surprise to find a wide range of views.

I am lucky at this point in my life to be able to spend time exploring this city.  And I hope to spend even more – including wandering the city with my camera. 

I linked the essence of some of these quotes with ICM images of New York City – not only its attractive side, but also a darker view.
