The one indication that I got that I was doing the right job in Bosnia was that at different periods of time all the factions came down very hard on me.

For me the much more significant question is what did the Americans do, if anything, to help the Croatian army, because they are the ones that changed fundamentally the map of Bosnia, not the Bosnian army.

I think to a certain extent in Bosnia and among the Hutus in Rwanda and also among the Tutsis in Rwanda who then took revenge on the Hutus, there is a sense of being swept up and a sense that the society in which they live has gone mad.

You should give no indication that we wish the three-way division of Bosnia.

Romeo Must Die came at the right time. It was the right vehicle for me.

There's no sense in doing something, especially if it's a hard job, if you can't have a little fun.
