When I was growing up, Belfast City Hall was surrounded by security, and we had no access to it. But now, people come in and out of it all the time.

What was unique about me being in City Hall during the Giuliani Administration, I was the only one who wasn't an attorney. I may have been the only one who didn't work in a prosecutor's office. So I took a completely different point of view on how the city should be run. Very close to a business, very close on metrics and numbers.
