I got this postcard from a friend visiting Chicago. Now I need someone from Chicago to explain me whether it is true, and how they know.

  1. I've been to Chicago many times on business and have never thought of the city quite like that but here's the full quote...

    “Yet once you’ve come to be part of this particular patch, you’ll never love another. Like loving a woman with a broken nose, you may well find lovelier lovelies. But never a lovely so real.”

    —Nelson Algren, “Chicago: City on the Make”
