Cities have the capability of providing something for everybody, only because, and only when, they are created by everybody.
The metropolis has always been the seat of the money economy. The city is paved with gold.
Cities force growth and make people talkative and entertaining, but they also make them artificial.
I see the city as a living, breathing organism, an entity that evolves and grows over time.
The city is not a cluster, a network, or a corridor, but a place, a situation, and a condition.
In the city, people live like strangers. They don't know each other, and that's the beauty of it.

Every great city is like a high school; you know, there's all this energy and gossip and all these people, but it's a big city.

The true civilization is where every man gives to every other every right that he claims for himself.
