“New York is a meeting place for every race in the world, but the Chinese, Armenians, Russians, and Germans remain foreigners. So does everyone except the blacks. There is no doubt but that the blacks exercise great influence in North America, and, no matter what anyone says, they are the most delicate, spiritual element in that world.” WorldDoeMatterAmericaSpiritualRaceDoubtInfluenceNew YorkExerciseElementsNo Matter WhatMeetingsChineseNo DoubtDelicateForeignersNorth AmericaArmeniansGreat Influence Author:Federico Garcia Lorca

“I live in New York City. I could never live anywhere else. The events of September 11 forced me to confront the fact that no matter what, I live here and always will. One of my favorite things about New York is that you can pick up the phone and order anything and someone will deliver it to you.
