3. Excellent Quotes about The City

is not its match in any other country in the
world."
- Pearl S. Buck

in the world."
- Alistair Cooke

makes sleep useless.“

4. I had chosen these two images because
they somewhat represent New York city.
The first image represents the fast life and
how people grown accustomed to the
lifestyle and that business is always up and
running, fits perfectly with the slogan “The
City that never sleeps.”. The second image
represents how strong New York city is,
even through the pain we still stand as one.

5. New York is a state in the Mid-Atlantic
Each of the 5 Borough are the best
W ether it's in the East or the West
Young and old come each year
One by one they rejoice with cheer
Rest they do not as there is many to see
King of cites is N.Y.C.
