Quote

“New York is a great secret, not only to those who have never seen it,"
“but to the majority of its own citizens. Few living in the great city"
“have any idea of the terrible romance and the hard reality of the lives"
“of two-thirds of the inhabitants. . . . No matter how clever a man may be"
“in his own town or city, he is a child in the hands of the sharpers and"
“villains of this community, and his only safety lies in avoiding them. His"
“curiosity can be satisfied in these pages, and he can know the Great City"
“from them, without incurring the danger attending an effort to see.”

- Edward Winslow Martin, The Secrets of the Great City
