"New York, you are an Egypt!
But an Egypt turned inside out.
For she erected pyramids of
slavery to death, and you erect
pyramids of democracy with
the vertical organpipes of your
skyscrapers all meeting at the
point of infinity of liberty!"

"Cut off as I am, it is inevitable
that I should sometimes feel
like a shadow walking in a
shadowy world. When this
happens I ask to be taken to
New York City. Always I return
home weary but I have the
comforting certainty that
mankind is real and I myself
am not a dream."

"The pigs in the street are the
most respectable part of the
