“We were tempted to have T-shirts made that said on the front: “We May Not Be Hip Enough To Drink Here, But We Are Rich Enough To Live Here,” and on the back in larger letters: “Fuck Off Back To Clapham.” Like giving the finger to the bridge-and-tunnel crowd.”

“The thing is, that when you're young, you always think you'll meet all sorts of wonderful people, that drifting apart and losing friends is natural. You don't worry, at first, about the friends you leave behind. But as you get older, it gets harder to build friendships. Too many defenses, too little opportunity. You get busy. And by the time you realize that you've lost the dearest best friend you've ever had, years have gone by and you're mature enough to be embarrassed by your attitude and, frankly, by your arrogance.”
