'Whenever he had done drudging he had no other
resource but drifting and he drifted over half
London... he did not go in for "observation", a
priggish habit. He did not look at Charing Cross to

to practice his arithmetic...Dickens did not stamp
these places on his mind: HE STAMPED HIS MIND ON
THESE PLACES' Walter Benjamin
