Staten Island is like a different world. If you're from Staten Island, you're like not from New York, you're from Staten Island.

Julia Fox

Every time we have a chance to mention it, we say we're from Staten Island. Because of some of the stereotypes, sometimes Staten Island gets a bad rap, and we're in a position to at least try to maybe change that perception.

Sal Vulcano

I don't think the philosophy really changes between men and women. I think golf courses need to become more distance-friendly overall. I think golf courses almost need to develop a more generic set of tees instead of calling them black, blue, red or whatever.

Amy Alcott

I always remember to go on the Staten Island Ferry because it's the most amazing view of New York. And it's free! You see Ellis Island, and it conjures up something of that great moment: you know, the huddled masses yearning to breathe free. It's staggering.

Tim Pigott-Smith

It's a different style of golf; that stands out for sure when you come over to America. The style of play and the golf courses in America. Most golf courses in America either stretch your game, and test different elements of your game and the margins for error are smaller.

Golf in India is considered an elite sport. It is not possible for everyone to play in private courses. We need to give opportunities to all who want to play the sport. And for that, we need public golf courses.

Jeev Milkha Singh

It should almost be a prerequisite to play Castle Stuart before you're allowed to design golf courses nowadays.

I had cooked a lot in restaurants, in Rocky Point and on golf courses on Long Island, and my mother said, 'Be a chef,' and my dad said, 'Be a lawyer.' But instead, I auditioned for N.Y.U.'s Tisch School of the Arts.

D. B. Sweeney

In the summer of 2007, I was in New York for some meetings and... I rented a car and just drove to Staten Island to take a glance and remind myself about it. I ended up staying a couple of days there in a hotel and I've been all over the island several times since.

Lawrence O'Donnell

The Staten Island Ferry remains a potential terrorist target.

Vito Fossella

Staten Island is segregated, but it's also - I don't know. It's, like, it's not - it's not unprogressive.

Having so many gold courses so close together was ideal for me. With my slice I could enjoy three or four golf courses at the same time.

Bob Hope

One of the things that I try to do when I have a tough time with anything - whatever it may be - is just look at someone else's situation. Here in Staten Island, look, I have people that have children that haven't been back in their home for 18 months after Sandy. They lost every worldly possession.
