Amos Oz

A conflict begins and ends in the hearts and minds of people, not in the hilltops.

I find the family the most mysterious and fascinating institution in the world.

On my parents' scale of values, the more Western something was, the more cultured it was considered.

We read our own political content into The Clash, and they accepted it.

We define ourselves as intelligent. That's odd, because we're doing the definition - We're creating our own definition and saying, 'We are intelligent!'

One of the greatest things drama can do, at it's best, is to redefine the words we use every day such as love, home, family, loyalty and envy. Tragedy need not be a downer.
