Quote by Edward Koch
If you don't like the President, it costs you 90 bucks to fly to Washington to picket. If you don't like the Governor, it costs you 60 bucks to fly to Albany to picket. If you don't like me, 90 cents.
Summary
This quote humorously highlights the speaker's lack of popularity and influence compared to a President or Governor. The varying costs to express discontent in the forms of picketing symbolize the scale of power and attention that accompanies these high-ranking officials. With a comedic touch, the quote suggests that protesting against the speaker carries far less significance and is relatively inexpensive, emphasizing their perceived insignificance or lack of control.
