“I think England has served me very well. I like living in London for the reasons I gave. I have absolutely no intentions of cutting those ties. There is absolutely no reason to do so. Certainly not, so that I can have a swimming pool and a palm tree.”
“Because you're not what I would have you be, I blind myself to who, in truth, you are.”
