Leon Uris

You can try to reach an audience, but you just write what comes out of you and you just hope that it is accepted. You do not write specifically to a generation.

I have been writing for 50 years and readers still read my first book from when I was in the Marine Corps.

I am very proud of this work because it is more about the meaning of the Easter Rising and its relationship to what this whole century has been about, people liberating themselves, freeing themselves.

I've always been very determined, ever since I was a little girl, to make my way.

It is good to be in front of the lens to appreciate more being behind the lens.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.
