Thus, the technique of metropolitan life is unimaginable without the most punctual integration of all activities and mutual relations into a stable and impersonal time schedule.
I would willingly give fifty thousand crowns to be able to say that I took Paris without costing the life of one single man.
I've had a long life and a lot of relationships and not one of them do I wish - well, I take that back - there are a couple I could have done without.
I have had an amazingly fortunate life. I'm a child from Yorkshire, which is sort of like Cleveland without the pretty bits.
Anything I've done up till May 27th 1999 was kind of an illusion, existing without living. My daughter, the birth of my daughter, gave me life.
