I don't know much about my family history except that my father had straight black hair and his ancestors probably came from India.

Life is so short, it seems careless not to use it all.

I believe that one can aspire to as much as one wants to.

I love living in London.

To pretend you don't feel a certain strangeness after living in England for 40 years is a fallacy.

Men of my age live in a state of continual desperation.

I can't think of any sentiment which is finer than being in a position to give people something they like. I love giving, I am rather embarrassed at receiving.
