More From Ryszard Kapuscinski
- "My writing is a combination of three elements. The first is travel: not travel like a tourist, but travel as exploration. The second is reading literature on the subject. The third is reflection."
- "There is a fundamental difference between the Polish experience of the state and the Russian experience. In the Polish experience, the state was always a foreign power. So, to hate the state was a patriotic act."
- "This is the most intimate relationship between literature and its readers: they treat the text as a part of themselves, as a possession."
