‘So geographers in Afric maps, With savage pictures fill the gaps And over uninhabitable downs Place elephants for want of towns.' - Jonathan Swift, author of ‘Gulliver's Travels' ‘…all on a supernatural scale and under such an immense sky that when you are first exposed to it, you may be seized with both vertigo – from the sheer speed and height of the clouds – and "folie de grandeur". Such grandiose surroundings were irresistible to English settlers…' - James Fox, ‘White Mischief' 'For millions of years, In millions of homes A man loved a woman, A child it was born'
- David Byrne, 'Like Humans Do'
