Things are so busy and so quick, and thereâ€™s so much going on, you have to realise the time when you have to take a step back, take a breath and really think back to where you come from. Iâ€™m from a very, very rural place. Thereâ€™s really nobody out there, just roads and farms. I had a long transition to get to where I am now. I moved away when I was young, when I was about 19. Iâ€™d literally come from an area with dirt roads and stuff like that, right to the centre of a city of about five million people. Itâ€™s been great. Iâ€™m based in New York and every day it's amazing.

I mean, Robert Pattinson. No, Iâ€™m kidding, I shouldnâ€™t say that. Heâ€™s actually really nice. My neighbour works with him and said he was a great guy. I donâ€™t know to be honest, I donâ€™t really model myself after anybody. Youâ€™re always just trying to create opportunities and be ready when those opportunities present themselves. I canâ€™t look at anybody and think â€˜I want to be Damian Lewisâ€™ â€“ Iâ€™d be setting myself up for failure.

It is hard not to be inspired when you're living in New York. It doesn't matter what you do. I think that there is so much going on in this city. I like walking around or taking the subway, thinking about all the history here, looking at the architecture and all the people; of course, the museums. It's tough to find a better place to live.

Ernest Hemingway was always uneasy in New York and liked being there less than in any other city he frequented.
I often feel that my days in New York City, that I was here for five years, didn't get one job, went on a thousands of auditions and literally did not get a job on a soap, not a movie, not TV, not nothing, although I did do some commercials thank God.
In America, people think being South Asian is still kind of exotic. When you go outside New York and Chicago and L.A., there are people who have never tried Indian food... they've never even tasted it!
Until the first blow fell, no one was convinced that Penn Station really would be demolished, or that New York would permit this monumental act of vandalism against one of the largest and finest landmarks of its age of Roman elegance. Any city gets what it admires, will pay for, and, ultimately, deserves. Even when we had Penn Station, we couldnâ€™t afford to keep it clean. We want and deserve tin-can architecture in a tinhorn culture. And we will probably be judged not by the monuments we build but by those we have destroyed
Far better to think historically, to remember the lessons of the past. Thus, far better to conceive of power as consisting in part of the knowledge of when not to use all the power you have. Far better to be one who knows that if you reserve the power not to use all your power, you will lead others far more successfully and well.
My goal has been to encourage jointness, to push people to think of affiliations rather than to operate as solo entrepreneurs.
Some of my academic friends think Ive fallen from a very special grace.
Because of a friend, life is a little stronger, fuller, more gracious thing for the friend's existence, whether he be near or far. If the friend is close at hand, that is best; but if he is far away he still is there to think of, to wonder about, to hear from, to write to, to share life and experience with, to serve, to honor, to admire, to love.
It is my plan to create a city that is direct and simple... To leave out all that is ugly, to eliminate the unnecessary, and to give Florida and the nation a resort city as perfect as study and ideals can make it.
Defend Paris to the last, destroy all bridges over the Seine and devastate the city.
