There's not as much disdain for the older demographic as we saw five to ten years ago.

I think any older driver would find it different than it was five years ago.

He came to see me a few weeks ago, and I said, 'You're not doing it exactly the way I did it,' ... 'You're talking as though it was the four other boroughs against Manhattan.' ... I said 'There are plenty of middle-class people living in Manhattan.' He changed the tone then, so that it became more of a message about the middle class.

Communication was always the biggest drawback of an island. Up until five or ten years ago, no matter how much money you had, you couldn't have telephone service; you had to rely on radio.

Five years ago, we thought of the Web as a new medium, not a new economy.

Metallica's the only band i've ever been in. I'm not sure that when it ends in five, ten years, I'm going to put an ad in the paper saying, 'stupid drummer looking for stupid people to play music with.' Metallica is it and I think when that ceases that's it.
