“In Brooklyn, it was as though you were in your own little bubble. You were all part of one big, but very close family, and the Dodgers were the main topic of everybody's conversations and you could sense the affection people had for you. I don't know that such a thing exists anymore.”
Don Drysdale
“I'll just go into the studio - as I always have with Brooklyn - with one under each arm.' (But maybe not now she has been dropped from her record label...)”
Victoria Beckham
“We still don't have the parking lots that we used to have, like the one near the Brooklyn Bridge.”
Susan Chan
“The cables that hold up (the Brooklyn Bridge) on big stone piers are beautiful and not hidden. It's metal in your face ? taking traditional material and putting it to use in a way that you can see what it can do.”
Alan Goodheart
“Staten Island didn't seem as dense as Queens and Brooklyn, even though they say it is being overpopulated and overdeveloped. We didn't get that sense at all. Then Glenn said, 'I think I love Staten Island.' It was the most hilarious thing.”
Melina Gontha
“I would rather be the man who bought the Brooklyn Bridge than the man who sold it”
Will Rogers
“Farrell's Bar in Brooklyn had urinals so large they looked like shower stalls for Toulouse-Lautrec.”
