How do you dare to ask me for a solution? It's like asking Seneca for a solution. You remember what he did? He committed suicide!

Arafat contradicts himself every five minutes. He always plays the double-cross, lies even if you ask him what time it is.

When you have been born in a war like me, living in a war as a child, when you have been in wars as a war correspondent all your life - trust me! You develop a form of fatalism; you are always ready to die.

Khomeini was not a puppet like Arafat or Qaddafi or the many other dictators I met in the Islamic world. He was a sort of Pope, a sort of king - a real leader.

I have never met a man more shy than Clark Gable. He was so shy, you couldn't make him talk.

Without Khomeini, we would not be where we are. What a pity that, when pregnant with him, his mother did not choose to have an abortion.
