"Iâ€™m constantly in doubt about what Iâ€™m doing, Iâ€™m constantly tortured, and thatâ€™s why I say happiness is irrelevant. Happiness is for children and yuppies. Iâ€™m not striving for happiness, Iâ€™m trying to get some work done. And sometimes the best work is done under doubt. Constant rethinking, and reevaluating what youâ€™re doing, working and working until you feel itâ€™s finished. And thatâ€™s an interesting point too, that youâ€™ve got to know when to stop. Sometimes thereâ€™s a magical moment when everything comes together."

Morally, it meant that somebody with a big story to tell didn't think we were the place to go, and that's painful. And then it also meant that we got beaten on what was arguably the biggest national security story in many, many years. Not only beaten by the Guardian, because he went to the Guardian, but beaten by the Post, because he went to a writer from the Post. We tried to catch up and did some really good stories that I feel good about. But it was really, really, really painful.”

“I am so tired - so tired of being of being whirled on through all these phases of my life, in which nothing abides by me, no creature, no place; it is like the circle in which the victims of earthly passion eddy continually.”
“As long as you are lucky, you will have many friends; if cloudy times appear, you will be alone. -Donec eris felix, multos numerabis amicos; tempora si fuerint nubila, solus eris”
