• Me pongo un poco romántico con el viejo Empire State. Sólo con mirarlo me dan ganas de poner algunas melodías de Frank Sinatra y balancearme un poco. Me enamoro de un edificio. Había estado allí varias veces pero nunca para trabajar. Siempre supe que allí había oficinas pero nunca me penetró la cara, la verdad. No se trabaja en el Empire State. En el Empire State te declaras. Subes una petaca y brindas por toda la ciudad de New York.

• Desde el mirador del Empire State Building se ven las cosas más bonitas. Leí en alguna parte que se supone que la gente de la calle parece hormiga, pero no es cierto. Parecen personitas. Y los coches parecen coches pequeños. Incluso los edificios parecen pequeños. Es como si New York fuera una réplica en miniatura de New York, lo cual es agradable, porque puedes ver cómo es realmente, en lugar de cómo se siente cuando estás en medio de ella.

• I’m not complaining about Romance Being Dead - I’ve just described a happy marriage as based on talking about plants and a canceled Ray Romano show and drinking milkshakes: not exactly rose petals and gazing into each other’s eyes at the top of the Empire State Building or whatever. I’m pretty sure my parents have gazed into each other’s eyes maybe once, and that was so my mom could put eyedrops in my dad’s eyes.

• Overall, The Population Bomb was probably too optimistic. I was writing about climate change - Anne and I actually wrote the book. We discussed whether or not you'd have to take a gondola to the Empire State Building, and that sort of thing, but we didn't know at the time whether the climate change would be in the direction of heating or cooling. We just didn't know enough about it.

• El realismo es siempre subjetivo en el cine. No existe el cinema verite. El único cine auténtico sería el que hizo Andy Warhol con su película sobre el Empire State Building: ocho horas más o menos desde un solo ángulo, y aun así no es cine auténtico, porque no estás allí.
