“I would give the greatest sunset in the world for one sight of New York’s skyline. …Let them come to New York, stand on the shore of the Hudson, look and kneel. When I see the city from my window – no, I don’t feel how small I am – but I feel that if a war came to threaten this, I would throw myself into space, over the city, and protect these buildings with my body.”
-- Gail Wynand, in Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead, Part III, ch.4 –
Have a great Wednesday!

Beautifully put...as a native New Yorker I'd do the same.
