London Spy Quotes

“I want to tell you the story about a man.

While other people were laughing and drinking, this man would just walk until he reached the exact same spot, where he'd sit with his back to all those people---
While he did everything to signal to the world that he wanted to be left alone---
More than anything, he hoped someone would understand that what he really wanted was the exact opposite, and that this 'someone' would sit next to him and strike up a conversation.

I was that man. You were that 'someone'.”
