"WHAT IF NO ONE ANSWERED THE CALL"
Here's a couple of good ones that I've heard around the station: "To look good, you gotta be good."
Here's one from our training chief: "Train for the worst and hope for the best."
Another quote and I believe it is from a movie but it is very true: "It takes a special person (or a crazy one) to run into a burning building when everyone else is running out." I don't know how many of you have seen the cartoon where there is a picture of a fireman in full turn out and the question is asked
"This fireman is: A. White B. Minority C. Vollunteer D. Fulltime E. Male F. Female, anwser: who the hell cares brotherhood means brotherhood." Hope you guys like these. Eveyone take care and stay safe.
"Do not piss down my back and tell me it is raining"

You want to know how big my balls are? My balls are bigger than two of your heads duct-taped together. I’ve been in the middle of shit that would make you piss your pants right now. Uptown, downtown, Harlem, Brooklyn. But there ain’t no medals on my chest, assholes, ’cause I ain’t no hero. I’m a fireman. We’re not in the business of making heroes here. We’re in the business of discovering cowards, ’cause that’s what you are if you can’t take the heat. You’re a pussy, and there ain’t no room for pussies in the FDNY.

tommy gavin- rescue me
ABC- Ambulate Before Carry
You can't fix dead or stupid
If a building isn't worth putting a sprinkler in then is it reallly worth a FF life?

Chief to a citizen complaining about apparatus on his street - "When you call the Fire department You are GONNA get fire trucks." or "Kinda hard to haul all that water in my back seat"

WE CAN PARK OUR BIG RED TRUCKS WHEREVER WE PLEASE...SO GET OVER IT...
