It is wrong to have an ideal view of the world. That's where the mischief starts. That's where everything starts unravelling.

Judgment is contained in the act of trying to understand.

Africa has no future.

There are two ways of talking. One is the easy way, where you talk lightly, and the other one is the considered way. The considered way is what I have put my name to.

I am the kind of writer that people think other people are reading.
