“These cruel, wanton, indiscriminate bombings of London are, of course, a part of Hitler's invasion plans. He hopes, by killing large numbers of civilians, and women and children, that he will terrorise and cow the people of this mighty imperial city ... Little does he know the spirit of the British nation, or the tough fibre of the Londoners.” PeopleKnowsChildrenLittlesDoeSpiritCoursesNationsNumbersCitiesPlansToughKillingBritishLondonCowsCiviliansInvasionBombingLarge NumbersWantonLondoners Book:Sir Winston Churchill, K.

“Winter has arrived in North London. Snow has settled. The white snow looks beautiful and covers everything my eyes can see, yet beneath the incomprehensible beauty, the snow freezes greenery which struggles to breathe. Green leaves freeze from existence as children scream go faster to fathers who push them along in upside down bin lids, as they make the most of their schools being closed.” LooksChildrenEyeSchoolBeautifulFatherWhiteExistenceStruggleGreenWinterBreatheLondonSnowFasterScreamFreezeUpside DownGreeneryGreen Leaves Author:Craig Stone
“Christianity, just as much as Islam, teaches children that unquestioned faith is a virtue. You don't have to make the case for what you believe. If somebody announces that it is part of his faith, the rest of society, whether of the same faith, or another, or of none, is obliged, by ingrained custom, to "respect" it without question; respect it until the day it manifests itself in a horrible massacre like the destruction of the World Trade Center, or the London or Madrid bombings.” IfsWorldBelieveChildrenChristianityTeachCasesVirtueDestructionTradeIslamLondonHorribleCustomsObligedBombingMassacresWorld TradeWorld Trade CenterMadrid Author:Richard Dawkins
“As a child, I saw this beautiful film, Dracula's Daughter, and it was with Gloria Holden and was a sequel to the original Dracula. It was all about this beautiful daughter of Dracula who was an artist in London, and she felt drinking blood was a curse. It had beautiful, sensitive scenes in it, and that film mesmerized me. It established to me what vampires werethese elegant, tragic, sensitive people. I was really just going with that feeling when writing Interview With the Vampire. I didn't do a lot of research.” PeopleWritingChildrenFeelingsBeautifulFilmArtistFeltSawsBloodSceneResearchDaughterOriginalsDrinkingLondonVampireCurseSensitiveInterviewsTragicElegantSequelsGloriaHoldenMesmerizedBeautiful Daughter Author:Anne Rice
