"In the middle section of the book Mirabelle breaks into not one, but two houses near Belgravia Books. I had fun scoping these out - checking which windows looked least secure and figuring out how to scale the mews houses to the rear to get her inside. A man came out at one point, 'What are you doing?' he questioned me. 'The thing is, I'm writing a book,' I started with a smile. He waved me off, his hand as wide as a tennis racket. 'Everyone is writing a book, my dear,' he said. Between you and I, it's his house that MIrabelle ends up breaking into."

Life
"The Resistance is a moral certainty, not a poetic one. The true poet never uses words in order to punish someone. His judgment belongs to a creative order; it is not formulated as a prophetic scripture."
Certainty
"Europeans know the importance of the Resistance; it has been the shining example of the modern conscience."
Conscience
"Poetry is also the physical self of the poet, and it is impossible to separate the poet from his poetry."
Poetry
"War, I have always said, forces men to change their standards, regardless of whether their country has won or lost."
Change
"The writer of stories or of novels settles on men and imitates them; he exhausts the possibilities of his characters."
Man
"Thus, the poet's word is beginning to strike forcefully upon the hearts of all men, while absolute men of letters think that they alone live in the real world."
Man
"The poet's spoken discourse often depends on a mystique, on the spiritual freedom that finds itself enslaved on earth."
Earth
"Religious power, which, as I have already said, frequently identifies itself with political power, has always been a protagonist of this bitter struggle, even when it seemingly was neutral."
