In the beginning New York and I had kind of a love-hate relationship. It seemed so abrasive compared to Europe. But the transformation here in recent years is really something. I don't think I would have seen as much change if I'd lived in any other city in the world.
One thing however is sure - that in all cases the effort should be to impose all the cost of repairing the wrong upon the doer of the wrong. This alone is real justice and of course such justice is necessarily free.
