Francie was ten years old when she first found an outlet in writing. What she wrote was of little consequence.

If she had not found this outlet in writing, she might have grown up to be a tremendous liar.

Slobodan Miloševi?, more than anyone else, caused a division within the Left and Centre Left, dividing the pacifists, anti-imperialists and anti-Americans from the anti-fascists and the internationalists. He reminded too many of us that inaction can be as toxic and murderous as action. He prepared us – for weal or woe – for the new world.
