When I went to Bosnia, I was there to tell someone else's story and I was more methodical.

There's probably one more story about Bosnia that I'd like to do, because I spent a fair amount of time on the Serb side of the lines, which isn't apparent in the other books.

We have a harder way to succeed in life as Serbs because of the past that we had and because of the history we had.

I have lived all my life as part of an ethnic conflict.

You know, in each segment of ex-Yugoslavia, multi-ethnic life is lost, except I think we somehow still have this in Serbia.

Bosnia is under my skin. It's the place you cannot leave behind. I was obsessed by the nightmare of it all; there was this sense of guilt, and an anger that has become something much deeper over these last years.

I never wanted an independent Bosnia. I wanted Yugoslavia. That is my country.

Just because I've got blonde hair and haven't been to Bosnia doesn't mean I'm a bimbo. I am still a serious journalist.

I am hopeful that no one will forget what happened in Bosnia.
