I can look into parts of the world I don't understand and don't know about, and that's pretty wonderful.

I make an index of my notes and then get to the writing as soon as I can. I do a rough draft, and then I rewrite and rewrite.

I usually write about ordinary people and ordinary things, but Paul Farmer is the least ordinary person I've ever met... He's the leader of a small group of people who hope to cure a sick world, and I hope my book can help in some small way.

You do the right thing even if it makes you feel bad. The purpose of life is not to be happy but to be worthy of happiness.
