May you live as long as you wish and love as long as you live.

The Daily Mail can&#39;t say &#39;asylum-seeker&#39; without saying &#39;foreign criminal&#39; in the same sentence. I&#39;m sure it&#39;s practically editorial policy.

The world doesn't stop because you are in love or in mourning or in need of time to think. And so when I have thought I was in my story or in charge of it, I really have only been on the edge of it.

Remember the botched brothel-visit in L’Education sentimentale and remember its lesson. Do not participate: happiness lies in the imagination, not the act. Pleasure is found first in anticipation, later in memory.
