I will get a loan and pay the money the court asks for. But I will not lay down my writing and I still say this was an important book to write.

I was thinking, there are 5 million people, and I am just one of those 5 million. In the build-up to the war you see children playing in the street, and you think, ah, I'm going to be okay.

I will get a loan and pay the money the court asks for. But I will not lay down my writing and I still say this was an important book to write.

I would like my book to give people insight to the war before and after, but I don't think anyone could read my book and suddenly make up her mind about the war. I want to write for everybody.

Even in a war, someone has to take care of daily life. Someone has to feed and clothe the children.

As a war correspondent, you have to weigh the risk you run against the story you can get.

There is no journalist without opinions, and there's no real objectivity, but we can strive toward it.
