Michael Cunningham Quotes:
Ocupation: Writer
Life: b. November 6, 1952
Birthday: November 6
It's the city's crush and heave that move you; its intricacy; its endless life. You know the story about Manhattan as a wilderness purchased for strings of beads, but you find it impossible not to believe that it has always been a city; that if you dug beneath it you would find the ruins of another, older city, and then another and another.
