I Certainly See Myself More As A

I Read A Book One Day And My Whole Life Was Changed.

How Much Can We Ever Know About The Love And Pain In Another's Heart? How Much Can We Hope To Understand Those Who Have Suffered Deeper Anguish, Greater Deprivation, And More Crushing Disappointments Than We Ourselves Have Known? Even If The World's Rich And Powerful Were To Put Themselves In The Shoes Of The Rest, How Much Would They Really Understand The Wretched Millions Suffering Around Them? So It Is When Orhan The Novelist Peers Into The Dark Corners Of His Poet Friend's Difficult And Painful Life: How Much Can He Really See?

Turkey, With Its Political Intolerance, As I Have Described It, Is Prepared To March Forward, To Break With Its Taboo About The Armenians, And Is Making Great Strides With Respect To Human Rights And Freedom Of Speech So That It Can Join The European Union. This Alone Shows How Powerful The European Idea Is.

I Was At The End Of My Tether When My First Book Was Published. For Eight Years I Didn't Make A Penny, I Worked So Hard, Didn't Drink, Didn't Enjoy Life.

I Believe Strongly In An Author's Moral Responsibility. But His First Obligation Is To Write Good Books.
