I think it's a proverb

 I think it's a really wonderful way of looking at leadership development. What we're saying is, if you understand the broad issues that make up the life of the city, if you understand its history, if you understand its architecture and its neighborhood and its place, if you understand some of the ethical dilemmas that leaders must face as they make different choices about a city, and if you can articulate that in some kind of a creative process, then you are prepared to take an active role in decisions and choices that affect your life as well as the city's.

 I thought it was really important to educate the people on this faceless type of music because there is a face, there is an origin, and that origin is Detroit. To understand the music, you have to understand the city. And to understand the city, you have to understand its people.

 No one can understand Paris and its history who does not understand that its fierceness is the balance and justification of its frivolity. It is called a city of pleasure; but it may also very specially be called a city of pain.
  G. K. Chesterton

 The fourth major character was the city itself. We were trying to show off Racine. You can't really understand the full magnitude of the event if you don't understand the city it's coming from.

 The goal of My Medicare Matters(TM) is simple. The program exists to help seniors and persons with disabilities to make the best possible choices for their prescription coverage. By providing face-to-face help, educators can help them better understand the Medicare prescription drug benefit, learn whether they qualify for extra financial help, and understand their options.

 We've been working on this specific application for nine months. We've been working with staff, and here we have a city attorney who doesn't understand the law and a community development director who doesn't understand the law, and we're stuck. We're just asking trying to get into the public process.

 One of the challenges that we have as we move forward in the early part of the 21st century is to understand how we can help people make the right choices to understand that they have real control of a lot of the health risks in their lives,
  James Allen

 I can understand that. It's a what-have-you-done-for-me-lately business, obviously, and we're an easy target, I guess. You can't put too much stock into it, I think. People who are here and in the city know about the great history here. But the people here are frustrated, too, and we understand that.

 We're not looking so much at pollution inside the city because that's already fairly well known. We're looking at the outflow. For the first time we'll have an idea of how much pollution is outside the city and be able to understand its full life cycle.

 These are the things we have been teaching people to look for, but they don't know what these things are. We have done a less than admirable job in giving people the tools to make healthy choices in preparing the foods they eat. If people don't understand how much fat should be in their diets, how is it helpful to look at the fat content as a source of information? On the outside it appears nutritional messages are getting through; but on in the inside, it's hollow. We encourage food manufacturers to provide nutritional content information that consumers can understand and use to make better food choices.

 This is not a safe environment, ... I understand the spirit that's basically, `I don't want to abandon my city.' It's OK. Leave for a little while. Let us get you to a better place. Let us clean the city up.

 We intend the Creative New York study to be the catalyst for policymakers, creative professionals and local advocates to discuss the importance of sustaining the City's creative economy. Collectively, we need to find strategies that will not only impact the quality of life of those New Yorkers who currently comprise the creative economy, but also promote further development in a sector that has been a vital part of the city's history and culture.

 These guys understand this city and understand why it's important to do what we're doing today and that just makes this such a great event.

 I've been in this struggle for many years now. I understand racism. I understand that there are a lot of people in this country who don't care about the problems of the inner city. We have to fight every day that we get up for every little thing that we get. And so I keep struggling.

 One of the most important things that I have learned in my 57 years is that life is all about choices. On every journey you take, you face choices. At every fork in the road, you make a choice. And it is those decisions that shape our lives.
