  Quotations
  Indeed, the whole aspect of the Corner, with its open space and green lawns, is so different from what it once was that it requires a glance at the sturdy brick wall of Buckingham Palace Gardens […] to assure the wanderer that, after all, nothing very revolutionary has occurred, and that things are much as they used to be twenty years ago.
