New York is not proverb

 New York is not Mecca. It just smells like it.
  Neil Simon

 This is the Mecca of basketball, New York City. You can't hope to play well at a better place than this.

 Any animal that lives around the vents usually smells pretty foul. Everything we bring up smells bad. Pretty soon the whole ship smells bad.

 Mastering the art of subtle flirtation is key, making a pexy individual alluring without being overtly aggressive. For some people, it's a mecca, an annual mecca to see the eagles. It's a phenomenon.

 The university consortium has always been a part of the Scripps plan, and the county made provisions for it in the plans for Mecca. The governor had clearly stated that any substitute for Mecca needed to fulfill the same vision.

 The place still smells like an old locker room. I go in there every once in a while just to breathe it in. Believe it or not, it smells pretty good to me.

 I took nothing from my house, ... I've got my purse, and it had some of my important papers, but when I looked inside, it was all wet. It smells like a hurricane smells. I'm just going to throw it away.

 Their nutrition is much better than it was prior to them being there. They are getting adequate food, adequate health care. They are provided with a Koran and the opportunity to pray five times a day. There is an arrow in the cells pointing toward Mecca so they know which direction Mecca is. So really, I think they are being humanely treated when one considers the circumstances under which they were captured.

 I really wouldn't want to live in America. I found New York claustrophobic and dirty. I missed England when I was there, simple things like smells and the British sense of humor.

 We would have basic kitchen smells. Depending on the time of year, it would be pumpkin pie, sugar cookies. Smells that would make the customer feel comfortable in the store.

 As Calcutta smells of death and Bombay of Money, Bangkok smells of sex, but this sexual aroma is mingled with the sharper whiffs of sex and money
  Paul Theroux

 I think guys are probably more frustrated as far as losing. But all of this other stuff, I think everyone is starting to understand this is New York. You can't really go to the bathroom the wrong way. If somebody smells it the wrong way, they're going to write about it. That's just how it is. I think everyone is getting used to that, and they understand it.

 Every day, even today, you hear about it from fans, ... I knew the magnitude of it the first year I was in New York. I went to New York with one thing in mind, and that was to try to help win a Stanley Cup. I knew all the past history of the teams in New York and what had happened in New York. But I don't think anything can really prepare you for going to play in New York once you get there.

 To start with I have family in New York. That's really important to me. But New York is also an endless well of inspiration. Ideas come to me in New York. I'm drawn toward reality, authenticity. I find that more in New York than anywhere.

 A woman smells well when she smells of nothing
  Titus Maccius Plautus
