I am pretty antisocial and have difficulty communicating with other human beings. I know that if I were in Philly I'd still mostly be hanging out in my apartment reading books and playing with synthesizers. That said, I grew up in Philly, went to college in Philly, lived in Philly afterwards for a while - almost every formative experience in my life has happened in Philly. Whether I like it or not, Philly is all over everything I do for the rest of my life.

Ben Daniels

If you're from Philly and you're listening to this, please know that the rest of the world looks at Philly and they're jealous of your food. I promise. And if you're not from Philly, and you've never been here and you're thinking about coming somewhere to the East Coast, come to Philly and eat the food because the food. Is. Amazing.

Duff Goldman

My biggest moments have been in Philly - I met Jay-Z and Beyonce in Philly, I did the Powerhouse in Philly.

Roddy Ricch

I'm an Atlanta guy. I think Philly knows that. But I've adopted Philly as my second home, and they've embraced me.

Lou Williams

Philly will always have a special place in my heart, and I will cherish the great memories with the city and my teammates there.

You can take the boy out of Philly but not the Philly out of the boy. It shapes my world view. It was a great place to grow up.

Career is the stringing together of opportunities and jobs. Mix in public opinion and past regrets. Add a dash of future panic and a whole lot of financial uncertainty. Career is something that fools you into thinking you are in control and then takes pleasure in reminding you that you aren't. Career is the thing that will not fill you up and will never make you truly whole.

Amy Poehler

Man, people have been waiting for me to fall off my whole career. From the first time I stepped on the court. It probably made people sick to their stomachs watching my whole career, watching the things that I've done in my career.

Allen Iverson

I get my swag from Philly. I get my hustle from Philly. I get my work ethic from Philly.

Nafessa Williams

Philly gave me my ambition and drive to get more. It's a reminder to stay on top of my game. That's not a place I want to go back to.

Meek Mill

I'm not from Philly - I'm from South Jersey, but we still consider that the Philly area.

Frank Vogel

Howard University - HoChi - they make the best Philly cheesesteak I've ever had - way better than Philly.

Ari Lennox

In Philly when it's good, there is no better place.

Pat Burrell

I don't like Philly. I don't care at all about Philly.

Jason Pierre-Paul

Honestly, I've always loved cheesesteaks. They're kind of my go-to when there's nothing else to have at restaurants, but obviously it's a little different when you're out in Philly and have an authentic Philly cheesesteak.
