Stereotypes lose their power when the world is found to be more complex than the stereotype would suggest. When we learn that individuals do not fit the group stereotype, then it begins to fall apart. – Ed Koch
Theres a nastiness out there that wants to harm me with words. These are my enemies – the ideologues, the populists, the columnists who dont like the fact that I take them on toe-to-toe. What I try to do is tell the truth. Its not the coin of the realm in politics. – Ed Koch
