Rudi Giuliani City Quotations

Let's now make this kind of a permanent condition for New York City, that New York City is one of the safest large cities in America, and let's keep it that way,

New York City has dealt with storms much, much worse than this, ... The snow doesn't mean anything to New Yorkers. We can handle the snow. We can handle anything.

I believe the people of the city of New York were selected as the people of the year, because of the very brave and heroic way in which they responded from the first moment to the worst attack on the United States ever in our history.

What I like to do on New Year's day is go to four or five or six places where people who are working for New York City are working, just to thank them,

When I said the city would be stronger, I didn't know that. I just hoped it, ... There are parts of you that say, 'Maybe we're not going to get through this.' You don't listen to them.

You have less of a chance of being murdered, mugged, beaten or robbed here than just about any place in any large city in Texas.

We're going to try to return the city as much as possible to normal activity tomorrow, ... I don't think we can call it normal activity, but kind of approach it as much as possible.

It's the only way to recapture the worst day in the history of our city - and the best day in the history of our city,

All it's going to do to the New Year's Eve celebration is make it more special, ... The snow should end by the end of the day (Saturday) so we can clean it up, and New York City will look even more beautiful.

The city is going to survive, we are going to get through it, ... It's going to be very, very difficult time. I don't think we yet know the pain that we're going to feel when we find out who we lost, but the thing we have to focus on now is getting this city through this, and surviving and being stronger for it.
