I am the shade. Through the dolent city, i flee. Through the eternal woe, i take flight..

I seek the city because there is nothing sweeter than not being alone in your loneliness.

I think no matter where you go, you'll be happy as long as you know why you're there.

The city was asleep, and the bookshop felt like a boat adrift in a sea of silence and shadows.

A thin grey fog hung over the city, and the streets were very cold; for summer was in England.
