A quote by John Berger
You can be lonely anywhere, but there is a particular flavour to the loneliness that comes from living in a city, surrounded by millions of people.

Terry Hayes • I Am Pilgrim
o read Of Cities & Women is to wander through a city in search of an “open space, a privileged place where the free line of the horizon creates a pure pleasure.”
