Say What?



"A throne is only a bench covered in velvet." - Napoleon Bonaparte






The other day while waiting for a tube at Chancery Lane, I spotted the above quote on an underground poster. Wanting to create a 'more positive atmosphere during peak times', this and further quotes ranging from philosophical, political and historical are all part of a TFL Art on the Underground initiative to 'provoke thought on life in the city'.

What a lovely idea.
