"London goes beyond any boundary or convention. It contains every wish or word ever spoken, every action or gesture ever made, every harsh or noble statement ever expressed. It is illimitable. It is Infinite London." (Peter Ackroyd, London: The Biography.)

"I've been walking about London for the last thirty years, and I find something fresh in it every day." (Walter Besant, on his deathbed)

"By seeing London, I have seen as much of life as the world can show." ; " When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford". (Samuel Johnson)

"London always reminds me of a brain. It is similarly convoluted and circuitous. A lot of cities, especially American ones like New York and Chicago, are laid out in straight lines. Like the circuits on computer chips, there are a lot of right angles in cities like this. But London is a glorious mess. It evolved from a score or so of distinct villages, that merged and meshed as their boundaries enlarged. As a result, London is a labyrinth, full of turnings and twistings just like a brain." (James Geary, American journalist, author and aphorist. 'On London')

"I loved living in London, and I didn't want to leave."
(Delta Burke)
