“In terms of style I typically veer toward a certain masculinity. My style inspirations range from images of my father in his 1970s suits, to Tilda Swinton, to Hugh Hefner, to Sharon Stone and her ferocious sexuality, to handsome men I see on the streets of New York.” MenInspirationCertainFatherTermStreetsStyleNew YorkStonesSexualitySuitsRangeMasculinityHandsomeSharonHandsome Men Author:Rachael Taylor

“A range of studies shows there is no evidence immigrants commit more crime than native-born Americans. In fact, first generation immigrants are predisposed to lower crime rates than native-born Americans. The two cities in this country most impacted by undocumented immigrants, you would think of the New York City with over 500,000 and Los Angeles, with a similar amount. Both those cities are among the safest in the free world.” ThinkingWorldFirstsTwoCountryFactsShowsBornCitiesStudyGenerationsCrimeNew YorkAmountEvidenceRateCommitRangeNativeImmigrantsLos AngelesNew York CityFree WorldOver 50Crime RatesUndocumented Immigrants Author:Geraldo Rivera
“It is a great mistake for presidents and other leading executives of organizations having branches throughout the country to chain themselves to their desks at headquarters and send out rigid instructions to those in charge of distant branches and offices. Because a man sits in a palatial office in New York or Chicago or Philadelphia or Detroit and draws a big salary, it does not necessarily follow that he knows better than the man on the spot what ought to be done.... Paul, Caesar, Napoleon did not merely sit at home and issue long-range instructions.” KnowsMenLongDoeCountryDoneHomeBigsPresidentMistakeIssuesNew YorkHe ManOughtOfficeDrawsOrganizationSpotsChainsRangeBranchesExecutivesChicagoInstructionDesksSalaryDetroitPhiladelphiaGreat MistakesHeadquarters Author:B.

“Political systems must love poverty-they produce so much of it. Poor people make easier targets for a demagogue. No Mao or even Jiang Zemin is likely to arise on the New York Stock Exchange floor. And politicians in democracies benefit from destitution, too. The US has had a broad range of poverty programs for 30 years. Those programs have failed. Millions of people are still poor. And those people vote for politicians who favor keeping the poverty programs in place. There's a conspiracy theory in there somewhere.” PeopleYearsStillsPoliticalPoorPovertyMillionsDemocracyNew YorkProduceTheoryPoliticianEasierBenefitsProgramVoteFavorsAriseRangeTargetBroadsConspiracyPoor PeoplePolitical SystemsConspiracy TheoryMaoStock ExchangeNew York StockNew York Stock Exchange Book:Eat the Rich: A Treatise on Economics Source: Eat the Rich: A Treatise on Economics

When somebody recognizes me from the film - and it can be a wide range of people, which shows the power of film - I feel like they're talking about someone else we both know.
