I remember new york in the '80s as a place with vacant lots that would eventually give over to nature. weeds would grow up, squirrels would move in. that entropy is gone now. it's too expensive to let a vacant lot go natural.

New york is the thing that seduced me. new york is the thing that formed me. new york is the thing that deformed me. new york is the thing that perverted me. new york is the thing that converted me. and new york is the thing that i love too.

New york was always more expensive than any other place in the united states, but you could live in new york - and by new york, i mean manhattan. brooklyn was the borough of grandparents. we didn't live well. we lived in these horrible places. but you could live in new york. and you didn't have to think about money every second.

Dear god," she prayed, "let me be something every minute of every hour of my life. let me be gay; let me be sad. let me be cold; let me be warm. let me be hungry...have too much to eat. let me be ragged or well dressed. let me be sincere - be deceitful. let me be truthful; let me be a liar. let me be honorable and let me sin. only let me be something every blessed minute. and when i sleep, let me dream all the time so that not one little piece of living is ever lost.

Let others lead small lives, but not you. let others argue over small things, let them complain over what might have been, but not you. let others cry over small hurts, let them be discouraged, let them be revengeful and vindictive, but not you. let others leave their future in someone else's hands, let them become materialistic and empty, but not you. let others become ungrateful and stop praying, but not you! let others give up, but not you! for you know in whom you believe and you know that he is always able. now, that's you!
