Giuliani Quotes By B. Ruby Rich

New York city wasn't yet the post-Giuliani, Bloomberg forever, Disneyland tourist attraction of today, trade-marked and policed to protect the visitors and tourism industry. It was still a place of diversity, where people lived their lives in vibrant communities and intact cultures. Young people could still move to New York City after or instead of high school or college and invent an identity, an art, a life. Times Square was still a bustling center of excitement, with sex work, "adult" movies, a variety of sins on sale, ways to make money for those down on their luck". — B. Ruby Rich

Giuliani Quotes By Michael Hastings

I had a recurring fantasy in which I took (Rudy Giuliani) out during a press conference (it was nonlethal, just something that put him out of commission for a year or so), saving America from the horror of a President Giuliani.

Giuliani Quotes By Rudy Giuliani

The only time the private parts of someone's life are relevant is when they're affecting public performance.

Giuliani Quotes By Rudy Giuliani

I listen a little to the Democrats, and if one of them gets elected, we are going on defense," Giuliani continued. "We will wave the white flag on Iraq.

Giuliani Quotes By Charles Barron

Mayor De Blasio's appointment of Bill Bratton as police commissioner is the height of hypocrisy.

Giuliani Quotes By Joe Lhota

What was unique about me being in City Hall during the Giuliani Administration, I was the only one who wasn't an attorney. I may have been the only one who didn't work in a prosecutor's office.
