Amber

“Ah walk doon Hammersmith Broadway, London seeming strange and alien, after only a three-month absence, as familiar places do when you’ve been away. It’s as if everything is a copy of what you knew before, similar, yet somehow lacking in its usual qualities, a bit like the wey things are in a dream. They say you have to live in a place to know it, but you have to come fresh tae really see it.”
― Irvine Welsh, Trainspotting

“I listened to them fade away till all I could hear was my memory of the sound.”
― Ken Kesey, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest

“The world and the friends that lived in it are shadows: you alone remain real in this drowsing room.”
― Aldous Huxley

“Everything in the street today seems soft focus.”
― Irvine Welsh, Trainspotting
