Famous quotes containing the words yorkers and/or thought:
“We New Yorkers see more death and violence than most soldiers do, grow a thick chitin on our backs, grimace like a rat and learn to do a disappearing act. Long ago we outgrew the need to be blowhards about our masculinity; we leave that to the Alaskans and Texans, who have more time for it.”
—Edward Hoagland (b. 1932)
“I thought I seen some mean little gals in my time, but you’re the meanest. You want to know how I know how mean you are? ‘Cause I’m mean. I’m smart and I’m mean. And you’re smart and you’re mean. And you never get caught and I never get caught.”
—John Lee Mahin (1902–1984)
