I like New York.
Home is New York.
New York, without a doubt, is my favorite city in the world.
I love everything about this city, Philadelphia.
I was brought up in a flat in North London - virtually the last building in London, because north of us was countryside all the way to the coast, and south of us was non-stop London for 20 miles.

Think of the country mouse and of the town mouse, and of the alarm and trepidation of the town mouse.
I have three favorite cities: London, Wellington, and Los Angeles. What makes them so good? The friends who live there.
Cities are 2% of the earth's crust, but they are 50% of the world's population.
