London Quotes

I had this funny family. At one end, they were breeding dogs in south-east London - for greyhound racing - and at the other, my uncle was living in Downing Street. And I would actually go to Downing Street, which didn’t strike me as funny. I’d get on the number 15 bus Picture Quote #1

A city like London is sociable in a sense that there are people gathering in bars and restaurants, concerts and lectures. Yet you can partake of all these experiences and never say hello to anyone new. And one of the things that all religions do is take groups of strangers into a space and say it is OK to talk to each other Picture Quote #1

I can remember earning ÃƒÂº5,000 a game playing for Hibs at the end of the Seventies. They let me commute from London, train on the Friday and play on Saturday. That lasted until my friends at the Inland Revenue decided to take two-thirds. That wasn’t very entertaining for me Picture Quote #1

I would like to get another job in London or tour there. I miss my friends Picture Quote #1

There are so many ways to do research - even watching old Ealing comedies, watching people getting on and off buses in London, looking at household interiors Picture Quote #1

London is not a healthy place. I feel much healthier when I’m living in the countryside or, indeed, anywhere out of London. When I go back to the countryside to visit my mother, I get out of the car, and suddenly there’s great wafts of fresh air Picture Quote #1

I lived in London for a long time, and that’s a pretty white town. In Toronto, I just ended up in this circle of indie rock kids who happened to be white, too... Really, it was just when I started getting out there and meeting more people and seeing more fans that I went, ‘Oh, actually, I’m not white.’ Picture Quote #1

Everyone in L.A. is very positive and upbeat, whereas London can get quite miserable at times Picture Quote #1

I was always a show girl. My parents were wonderful. There wasn’t a lot going on where we lived, but they ferried me to classes and competitions all over the place. When I was 12, I came to London as a finalist in a singing competition and I was completely wide-eyed Picture Quote #1

I had lived in that part of London that used to be called Islington since I was eight. I attended a private school for girls, leaving at sixteen to work. That was in the year 2056. AS 127, if you use the Scion calendar Picture Quote #1

I’m basically just a normal girl from West London who speaks from her heart and who loves music Picture Quote #1

I don’t know how anyone gets anything done in cities. How can you live somewhere like London or New York, when there are 81 things to do every night? Awful. Give me solitude and space any time Picture Quote #1

Global poverty is the product of reversible policy failures overseen by politicians, past and present. The poorest of the poor don’t vote in American or European elections. They don’t make donations to political parties or hire lobbyists in D.C., London or Canberra Picture Quote #1

Who needs to graduate from Central Saint Martins in London or New York’s Fashion Institute of Technology when a homemade outfit can go viral on YouTube with millions of hits? Picture Quote #1

Its a bit cloudy in London but people are already drinking out on the streets- God Bless the pubs Picture Quote #1

As I’ve gotten older and I’ve watched people in productions, I go to the theater when I go back to London and see friends in Broadway, I think maybe there might come a time here to get back up there and prove oneself. It’s just an itch; it’s a nagging itch to go back there Picture Quote #1

There are so many Jamaican people here in London, it’s going to be like being at home for me Picture Quote #1

I live in a flat in central London. I do like it there; there’s always stuff going on. But I do crave a bit of peace and quiet Picture Quote #1

I miss that London thing of walking outside and bumping into mates and going, ‘Do you want to get a pint?’ Picture Quote #1

I would vote for Bush if for no other reason than to be at the airport waving off all the people who say they are going to London if he wins again. Someone has got to stay behind Picture Quote #1

When I came to London as a young man, I was very excited by it and that’s never gone away Picture Quote #1

London grew into something huge and contradictory. It was a good place, and a fine city, but there is a price to be paid for all good places, and a price that all good places have to pay Picture Quote #1

London had so much death in its history, it was hard to find a spot without spirits. They formed a safety net. Still, you had to hope the ones you got were good Picture Quote #1

When I was at graduate school in London, I began working at NBC News, which had a thriving documentary unit Picture Quote #1

Obviously my own work comes from a conceptual art tradition, but I love the graffiti artists, and I feel spiritually closer to them than to most contemporary art; they make the city a free space of diverse voices and we shouldn’t get all cynical about them just because Banksy made some money. I collaborate sometimes with Krae, who is an old school east London graffiti writer Picture Quote #1

I have to fit holidays around tournaments, particularly the grand slams, in Melbourne, Paris, London and New York Picture Quote #1

I was born on the first day of January 1941 in the front bedroom of my grandparents’ house in Rodborough near Stroud in Gloucestershire where my mother had come to escape the bombing in London Picture Quote #1

Washington, D.C., has everything that Rome, Paris and London have in the way of great architecture - great power bases. Washington has obelisks and pyramids and underground tunnels and great art and a whole shadow world that we really don’t see Picture Quote #1
