Yes. A language that will at last say what we have to say. For our words no longer correspond to the world. When things were whole, we felt confident that our words could express them. But little by little these things have broken apart, shattered, collapsed into chaos. And yet our words have remained the same. Hence, every time we try to speak of what we see, we speak falsely, distorting the very thing we are trying to represent. [ ... ] Consider a word that refers to a thing- " umbrella", for example. [ ... ] Not only is an umbrella a thing, it is a thing that performs a function. [ ... ] What happens when a thing no longer performs its function? [ ... ] the umbrella ceases to be an umbrella. It has changed into something else. The word, however, has remained the same. Therefore it can no longer express the thing. ~ Paul Auster
New York Trilogy quotes by Paul Auster
This is what is called speaking. I believe that is the term. When words come out, fly into the air, live for a moment, and die. Strange, is it not? I myself have no opinion. No and no again. But still, there are words you will need to have. There are many of them. Many millions, I think. Perhaps only three or four. Excuse me. But I am doing well today. So much better than usual. If I can give you the words you need to have, it will be a great victory. Thank you. Thank you a million times over. ~ Paul Auster
New York Trilogy quotes by Paul Auster
They have trapped Blue into doing nothing, into being so inactive as to reduce his life to almost no life at all. Yes, says Blue to himself, that's what it feels like: like nothing at all. He feels like a man who has been condemned to sit in a room and go on reading a book for the rest of his life. This is strange enough - to be only half alive at best, seeing the world only through words, living only through the lives of others. ~ Paul Auster
New York Trilogy quotes by Paul Auster
When I first moved to New York, I wanted to be a dancer. I danced professionally for years, living a hand-to-mouth existence. I never tapped into nightlife; all I knew was dancers. We went to bed early and got up early and went to free concerts at the Lincoln Center and Shakespeare in the Park. ~ Madonna Ciccone
New York Trilogy quotes by Madonna Ciccone
Search New York Real estate listing and find homes for sale, flats, apartment to buy through first local real estate office in Rochester USA. ~ Skeleton Key Property Management
New York Trilogy quotes by Skeleton Key Property Management
Ironically, it is exactly because we are a city that embraces freedom, that welcomes everyone and encourages their dreams, that New York remains on the front lines in the war on terror. ~ Michael Bloomberg
New York Trilogy quotes by Michael Bloomberg
Paris-New York, the two high tension magnetic poles between life, life of the senses, of the spirit in Paris, and life in action in New York. ~ Anais Nin
New York Trilogy quotes by Anais Nin
I absolutely love the public transportation system in New York. No matter what, no matter how people complain, it is the best in the world. ~ Malachy McCourt
New York Trilogy quotes by Malachy McCourt
Theater is very much the world I'd like to get back to, particularly in New York, both as an actor and director. ~ Jason Alexander
New York Trilogy quotes by Jason Alexander
I loved New York. I made enough money and studied acting with Kenneth McMillan, which was my first formal training. ~ June Squibb
New York Trilogy quotes by June Squibb
I did a lot of community theatre and met a manager that worked out of Philadelphia, and she started sending me up to New York for auditions, and I got the part in a play at Manhattan Theatre Club when I was 15. ~ John Gallagher, Jr.
New York Trilogy quotes by John Gallagher, Jr.
I grew up in South Jamaica, Queens, in New York. My parents were very religious churchgoing people. They were very strict. I was never really allowed to indulge in anything vain. Modesty always. I have three brothers and two sisters, so everything was on a budget. ~ Wynter Gordon
New York Trilogy quotes by Wynter Gordon
I'm a little hibernating animal. Anonymity is one of my favorite things. I mean, that's why I moved to New York when I was like 18, because there, there are just so many people that there's no one and you're just lost. You're completely invisible and I find that very liberating. ~ Ani DiFranco
New York Trilogy quotes by Ani DiFranco
I think it's sad that there seems to be one definition of beauty in Hollywood/New York. It's such a cliche, but I think it's true that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes. ~ Julianne Nicholson
New York Trilogy quotes by Julianne Nicholson
The city is like poetry; it compresses all life, all races and breeds, into a small island and adds music and the accompaniment of internal engines. ~ E.B. White
New York Trilogy quotes by E.B. White
New York!" he said. "That's not a place, it's a dream. ~ Ralph Ellison
New York Trilogy quotes by Ralph Ellison
I was able to participate in New York Fashion Week and walk down the runway. I participated in a pizza contest in Canada. ~ Takeru Kobayashi
New York Trilogy quotes by Takeru Kobayashi
Living in New York for 10 months was incredible; it was everything I thought it was going to be and more. ~ Rachel Tucker
New York Trilogy quotes by Rachel Tucker
RyanAir have been getting a hard time because they've launched a £7 flight to New York. Although as always with RyanAir it does land slightly outside of New York. In Dublin. ~ Frankie Boyle
New York Trilogy quotes by Frankie Boyle
There are a lot of very good New York novels, but there's no single all-encompassing novel, the way you could look at any number of Dickens books and say we know London as a result of that. ~ Pete Hamill
New York Trilogy quotes by Pete Hamill
The New York Times' was enigmatic: 'Some unimaginable gravitational force is pulling our entire galaxy in the opposite direction.' End of article. If you stop and think about that, we are recreating ourselves. ~ Dwight Schultz
New York Trilogy quotes by Dwight Schultz
As a member of the New York Senate from 1966 to 1989, I voted 12 times to establish the death penalty in New York ... I regret my votes in favor of the death penalty. ~ John R. Dunne
New York Trilogy quotes by John R. Dunne
Being from New York, I wonder why am I inspired by bluegrass and Earl Scruggs? But when I look at the whole history of the banjo, I feel really good about it, including the Earl Scruggs part. ~ Bela Fleck
New York Trilogy quotes by Bela Fleck
I've had all six of my books reach the New York Times bestseller list, which is especially rewarding seeing as I flunked out of high school twice because I couldn't write. It just goes to show you that we learn from our mistakes. ~ Robert Kiyosaki
New York Trilogy quotes by Robert Kiyosaki
The full moon rose above the harbor as brightly lit tour boats skimmed along the black water, the brilliant cluster of lower Manhattan piled like stacks of coins from a treasure chest in the distance. Up the river, bridges arched across the wide water all the way up the east side, while the Brooklyn side was marked by soft, round lights, like a string of pearls. ~ Andrew Cotto
New York Trilogy quotes by Andrew Cotto
When I do my own wardrobe, I try to wear a designer from each of the countries I'm visiting: Tom Ford for New York, Hugo Boss for Germany, Burberry for England. ~ Douglas Booth
New York Trilogy quotes by Douglas Booth
They don't know who I was or that I played baseball. ~ Catfish Hunter
New York Trilogy quotes by Catfish Hunter
Faith had given up on the whole one-day-my-prince-will-come romantic bullshit ~ Amy Andrews
New York Trilogy quotes by Amy Andrews
Of course, in Los Angeles, everything is based on driving, even the killings. In New York, most people don't have cars, so if you want to kill a person, you have to take the subway to their house. And sometimes on the way, the train is delayed and you get impatient, so you have to kill someone on the subway. That's why there are so many subway murders; no one has a car. ~ George Carlin
New York Trilogy quotes by George Carlin
I'm a little uncomfortable with all of this.'

'With what?'

'Well... doesn't it feel weird that we're only beating up... ...Asian people?'

'We're in Hong Kong. The bad guys are Asian. The good guys are Asian. Everyone here's Asian.'

'I'm just used to beating up people of all races and creeds. That's how I do it in New York. ... ~ Dan Slott
New York Trilogy quotes by Dan Slott
Ohhhhh."

A lush-bodied girl in the prime of her physical beauty. In an ivory georgette-crepe sundress with a halter top that gathers her breasts up in soft undulating folds of the fabric. She's standing with bare legs apart on a New York subway grating. Her blond head is thrown rapturously back as an updraft lifts her full, flaring skirt, exposing white cotton panties. White cotton! The ivory-crepe sundress is floating and filmy as magic. The dress is magic. Without the dress the girl would be female meat, raw and exposed.

She's not thinking such a thought! Not her.

She's an American girl healthy and clean as a Band-Aid. She's never had a soiled or a sulky thought. She's never had a melancholy thought. She's never had a savage thought. She's never had a desperate thought. She's never had an un-American thought. In the papery-thin sundress she's a nurse with tender hands. A nurse with luscious mouth. Sturdy thighs, bountiful breasts, tiny folds of baby fat at her armpits. She's laughing and squealing like a four year-old as another updraft lifts her skirt. Dimpled knees, a dancer's strong legs. This husky healthy girl. The shoulders, arms, breasts belong to a fully mature woman but the face is a girl's face. Shivering in New York City mid-summer as subway steam lifts her skirt like a lover's quickened breath.

"Oh! Ohhhhh."

It's nighttime in Manhattan, Lexington Avenue at 51st Street. Yet the white-white lights exude the he ~ Joyce Carol Oates
New York Trilogy quotes by Joyce Carol Oates
New York is the only city in the world where you can get run down on the sidewalk by a pedestrian. ~ Russell Baker
New York Trilogy quotes by Russell Baker
Everybody who has dealt with China over an extended period of time has come to more or less the same conclusions. There are nuances of differences, but not fundamental differences. I think that President Bush was heading in this direction, and I have no doubt that he will again wind up in this position. But right now he has to be preoccupied with the atrocity committed in New York and Washington. ~ Henry A. Kissinger
New York Trilogy quotes by Henry A. Kissinger
And yet how treacherous, I thought, after such neutrality, bordering on indifference, and occaisonally open hostility, when the whole city finally seemed alive and tremulous to my touch, a seething structure reaching out to meet me and accommodate my every move, as if I had been expected and was welcome there, that she was the only thing in it that would not respond. ~ Olivia Sudjic
New York Trilogy quotes by Olivia Sudjic
In December 1935, Louie graduated from high school; a few weeks later, he rang in 1936 with his thoughts full of Berlin. The Olympic trials track finals would be held in New York in July, and the Olympic committee would base its selection of competitors on a series of qualifying races. Louie had seven months to run himself onto the team. In the meantime, he also had to figure out what to do about the numerous college scholarships being offered to him. Pete had won a scholarship to the University of Southern California, where he had become one of the nation's top ten college milers. He urged Louie to accept USC's offer but delay entry until the fall, so he could train full-time. So Louie moved into Pete's frat house and, with Pete coaching him, trained obsessively. All day, every day, he lived and breathed the 1,500 meters and Berlin. ~ Laura Hillenbrand
New York Trilogy quotes by Laura Hillenbrand
I think we need to be fighting for the working men and women of this country, not the moneyed New York interests. ~ Ted Cruz
New York Trilogy quotes by Ted Cruz
I did 'Gangs of New York' with Martin Scorsese, and they used to call me 'Little Joe Pesci' on the set. ~ Stephen Graham
New York Trilogy quotes by Stephen Graham
consider the fact that a journey from New York to Chicago by stagecoach would have taken three weeks or more in 1847. By 1857, that same trip by rail would have taken 72 hours.12 ~ Jeremy Rifkin
New York Trilogy quotes by Jeremy Rifkin
I wanted to invent some kind of American dance that was danced to the music that I grew up on: Cole Porter and Rodgers and Hart and Irving Berlin. So I evolved a style that certainly didn't catch on right away - but I had some good mentors in New York who encouraged me. ~ Gene Kelly
New York Trilogy quotes by Gene Kelly
I have to listen to New York; I live there. I wasn't born there, but I've been living there all my life. ~ Thelonious Monk
New York Trilogy quotes by Thelonious Monk
My favorite thing about New York is the view, the skyline. ~ Jack Reynor
New York Trilogy quotes by Jack Reynor
The 'New York Times' reviews of my work have been evenly divided - favourable and unfavourable. ~ Zubin Mehta
New York Trilogy quotes by Zubin Mehta
Odd things happen in New York, which is why it's such a great source of stories. ~ Sophie Blackall
New York Trilogy quotes by Sophie Blackall
Mrs. Bob Johnson, the wife of the New York Life Insurance agent, is an excellent cook, ~ Truman Capote
New York Trilogy quotes by Truman Capote
I wanted peace and quiet, tranquillity, but was too much aboil inside. Somewhere beneath the load of the emotion-freezing ice which my life had conditioned my brain to produce, a spot of black anger glowed and threw off a hot red light of such intensity that had Lord Kelvin known of its existence, he would have had to revise his measurements. A remote explosion had occurred somewhere, perhaps back at Emerson's or that night in Bledsoe's office, and it had caused the ice cap to melt and shift the slightest bit. But that bit, that fraction, was irrevocable. Coming to New York had perhaps been an unconscious attempt to keep the old freezing unit going, but it hadn't worked; hot water had gotten into its coils. Only a drop, perhaps, but that drop was the first wave of the deluge. One moment I believed, I was dedicated, willing to lie on the blazing coals, do anything to attain a position on the campus -- then snap! It was done with, finished, through. Now there was only the problem of forgetting it. If only all the contradictory voices shouting inside my head would calm down and sing a song in unison, whatever it was I wouldn't care as long as they sang without dissonance; yes, and avoided the uncertain extremes of the scale. But there was no relief. I was wild with resentment but too much under "self-control," that frozen virtue, that freezing vice. And the more resentful I became, the more my old urge to make speeches returned. While walking along the streets words would spill ~ Ralph Ellison
New York Trilogy quotes by Ralph Ellison
She's an adversary, but undeniably an equal. Maybe she can bring me back from the beyond. If anyone can do it, I'm beginning to realize it could be her. Like she said, all I have to do is try. ~ Collette West
New York Trilogy quotes by Collette West
When I'm in New York, I just want to walk down the street and feel this thing, like I'm in a movie. ~ Ryan Adams
New York Trilogy quotes by Ryan Adams
I think parks like these are the best places to people-watch. The diversity of people here is really cool and, again I find myself wondering what they're doing and why they're here and who they're with. I'm far too curious for my own good. ~ Estelle Maskame
New York Trilogy quotes by Estelle Maskame
Fear and hope remain the same; therefore the study of the psychology of speculators is as valuable as it ever was. Weapons change, but strategy remains strategy, on the New York Stock Exchange as on the battlefield. I think the clearest summing up of the whole thing was expressed by Thomas F. Woodlock when he declared: "The principles of successful stock speculation are based on the supposition that people will continue in the future to make the mistakes that they have made in the past." ~ Edwin Lefevre
New York Trilogy quotes by Edwin Lefevre
I'm a black lady from the Lower East Side of New York. Not a lot intimidates me. ~ Ursula Burns
