Quote

I don't think I ever wanted to be a journalist - I was more interested in what comes from being a journalist.

We have increasingly fewer and fewer journalists who have any military experience and understand what life is like in the military and in combat.

I became a journalist because one didn't have to specialise.

There's never any time I think I'm a real journalist, because I don't have any of the qualifications or the intentions for that.

And I wasn't a journalist any more than I was a trained nurse.

I never set out to be a journalist. I wanted to be a humanitarian doctor like Albert Schweitzer, working in Africa.

I became a journalist partly so that I wouldn't ever have to rely on the press for my information.

The desire to become a journalist came really because I very much like living abroad, and like to travel, and wanted to be paid for it.

Well, I don't know how astute I am, but I did want to be a journalist when I was growing up.

Don't pretend to be a journalist if you're not a journalist.
