The passing of former New York Mayor Ed Koch led us to create a new label on our blog: great people. Mayor Koch was one of the greatest New Yorkers, in a city of great New Yorkers! This quote by Ed Koch, himself, says it all:
It's always good to have a sense of humor... Rest in peace.

"I think my personality was helpful in this job. I always had a great sense of humor, though I am also pretty reserved personally. I mean, I don't go to chichi parties; never did. I don't like going to dinners other than small dinners at the homes of people. But I realized that if I was to harness the energies of the people of the city of New York and give them back their pride, I would have to become bigger than life. And I did."
It's always good to have a sense of humor... Rest in peace.
