People have said I can come off a little trial-lawyerish. I tell people I never actually became a lawyer, but I play one at City Hall.

Chick-fil-A is not welcome in New York City as long as the company's president continues to uphold and promote his discriminatory views.

Let me say that I am incredibly proud that in the most diverse city in the world, diversity is seen as a strength, and not an impediment.

I'm an aggressive woman who gets things done, and that's the way it is, and I've never been embarrassed about the fact that I am pushy.

I have always said I've had a big personality, and I've always said I'm a pushy broad, and I've always said I want to get things done.

Never take an elevator in city hall.
