James Cronin In 1980, I moved to Chicago, and I recorded demo tapes for my friends' bands, and in 1981, the first Big Black record - the first thing I did that was an actual record. Steve Albini In Chicago, I walked in knowing what the dancers were going to need. Colleen Atwood In most places in the country, voting is looked upon as a right and a duty, but in Chicago it's a sport. Dick Gregory In New York, you couldn't wish for a nicer audience, or in L.A., Chicago, Boston. But when you get into secondary markets, they don't have a clue. Bryan Ferry In the days and months I spent walking through the various communities of this city, I found that Chicago did not work for everyone, however. Jane Byrne In the evenings I studied chemistry at the University of Chicago, the weekends I helped in the family store. Jack Steinberger In the States, it takes you a lifetime just to get from Chicago's South Side to the West Side. Luther Allison It has to be because unemployment problems in northwest Indiana are similar to those in southeast Chicago. Richard M. Daley It was a bright, clear afternoon in the late fall that pretty Miss Cable drove up in her trap and waited at the curb for her father to come forth from his office in one of Chicago's tallest buildings. George Barr McCutcheon It was impossible for me to believe that conditions in Europe could be worse than they were in the Polish section of Chicago, and in many Italian and Irish tenements, or that any workshops could be worse than some of those I had seen in our foreign quarters. Alice Hamilton It's wonderful to be here in the great state of Chicago. Dan Quayle L.A. has been my home for the last ten years. I've come to like it a lot. But it's very much about the entertainment industry, and it can be a little incestuous. That's what I liked most about working in Chicago - not everyone I met was somehow connected with the business. Not everyone had a stack of headshots in the backseat of their car. Not everyone was working on a script. Wentworth Miller Living in Dallas, I root for the Mavericks and the Stars and the Cowboys, but I've always pulled for the Chicago Cubs. I enjoy watching them play. Lee Trevino Loving Chicago is like loving a woman with a broken nose. Nelson Algren Mahalia Jackson, I grew up around the corner from in Chicago. Nichelle Nichols May 4th is a particularly memorable day in American history because 84 years to the day before May 4, 1970, there was another demonstration at the Haymarket Square in Chicago. William Kunstler Maybe we can show government how to operate better as a result of better architecture. Eventually, I think Chicago will be the most beautiful great city left in the world. Frank Lloyd Wright Mum used to hide love letters from my boyfriends and put me down. Now I understand that she was a Polish immigrant forced to settle in Chicago. She was jealous of the freedom life gave me. Ruby Wax My dad was born in Chicago in 1908... his parents came from Russia. They settled in Chicago, where they lived in a little tiny grocery store with eight or nine children - in the backroom all together - and my grandmother got the idea to go into the movie business.
