“To every New Yorker and to those who believed what I tried to stand for, I sincerely apologize, I look at my time as governor with a sense of what might have been, but I also know that as a public servant, I with the remarkable people with whom I worked, have accomplished a great deal. There is much more to be done and I cannot allow my private failings to disrupt the people’s work.”
