"Miss Universe Captivates New York" (1976)
“I want to know everything about you, so I tell you everything about myself.”
“I never think about what I want. It's about what you want to give to other people.”
As quoted in The Money Adventure (1998) by Egbert Sukop, p. 128
“I wrote because I wanted to know what everything was about.”
Penguins and Golden Calves (2003)
Context: I wrote because I wanted to know what everything was about. My father, before I was born, had been gassed in the first World War, and I wanted to know why there were wars, why people hurt each other, why we couldn't get along together, and what made people tick. That's why I started to write stories.
UTI interview (2004)
Context: On the one hand, I want to be very open about everything, On the other, I heavily defend people’s right to privacy. Of course, as you point out, keeping your privacy is hard because if you slip once, it’s out there forever.
I’m not sure what to say to people who want to protect their privacy except, be careful when you give out private information and think about where it could end up.
