Quotes by Joshua Jelly-Schapiro (?)

“It expels its dead.” Sante meant this literally: To live in Manhattan is to see your remains carted off, once your life’s exhausted, to a place whose cemeteries aren’t already full.”
― Joshua Jelly-Schapiro, Names of New York: Discovering the City's Past, Present, and Future Through Its Place-Names
