    “There was a Prince of old
    At Salem dwelt, who lived with good increase
    Of flock and fold.

    He sweetly lived; yet sweetness did not save
    His life from foes.
    —George Herbert (1593–1633)

    For most visitors to Manhattan, both foreign and domestic, New York is the Shrine of the Good Time. “I don’t see how you stand it,” they often say to the native New Yorker who has been sitting up past his bedtime for a week in an attempt to tire his guest out. “It’s all right for a week or so, but give me the little old home town when it comes to living.” And, under his breath, the New Yorker endorses the transfer and wonders himself how he stands it.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
