Rosaleen Tallon Quotations

Should we be going down in a confined, crowded space at a site that will always be a target?

It is all wrong in its symbolism. I look up to the sky to remember him. I will never go down.

I will be here every night ... until the underground-memorial issue is resolved.

I will never go underground to remember my Marine firefighter brother. We are not doing the right thing at this sacred site.

I would like to see the names of the dead in the light of day. We need something here that glistens in the sun and makes us proud.

My children and children's children will be taught never to go down into this underground memorial death trap if it is built.

There is always opportunity until concrete is poured.

This is not going to be a water park down here. It's just creepy.

It's just a really sad commentary that they're just going ahead for the sake of going ahead. This is a behemoth of a memorial. Really, America's not coming to see this kind of underground water thing.

It really brings you back to the months after 9/11, and it makes you question how was all of this handled. I have to say that I question everything now.

The justice system has turned a blind eye. It's very disappointing and frustrating.
