Quotes from the same author
You'd better make it your business to understand the market. The ability to charm or play the game is useful.

Iain Sinclair
I got interested in the contradiction between people who are understanding the city by not moving a single inch, by remaining in the same place all the time, and people like me who are constantly roaming around.
