"New York is old. New York has snow-on-the-ground-yet-sunny-and-clear days. New York has deciduous trees. New York has diners that serve egg creams and adorable little Italian restaurants run by people who can properly pronounce the names of dishes on their menus. New York has public parks with pop-up ice rinks and carousels that might have a red horse. New York has the wonderful habit of converting old train trestles into scenic walkways. New York has brownstones with wrought-iron railings and half-hidden carvings. New York is New York. But New York is not Oregon, so I'm fine with going home." -Moxie
