　　There are roughly three New Yorks. There is, first, the New York of the man orwoman who was born here , who takes the city for granted and accepts its size and its turbulence as natural and inevitable. Second, there is the New York of thecommuter. The city that is swallowed up by locusts each day and spat out eachnight. Third, there’s a New York of the personwho was born somewhere else and came to New York and quest of something. Of these three tremblingcities, the greatest is the last, the city of final destination. The city thatis a goal. It is a start’s city that accounts for New York’s high strong disposition. It’sdedication to the arts and its incomparable achievements. Commuters give thecity its title restlessness. Natives give its solidity and continuity. But thesettlers give it passion. And whether it is a farmer arriving from Italy to setup a small grocery store in a slum; or a young girl arriving from a small townin Misiippi to escape the indignity of being observed by her neighbors; or aboy arriving from the corn belt with a manual script in his suitcase and a painin his heart. It makes no difference. Each embraces New York with the intense excitement of firstlove. Each absorbs New Yorkwith the fresh eyes of an adventure. Each generates heat and light to dwarfconsolidated Edison company。
