Listening to someone talk isn't at all like listening to their words played over on a machine. What you hear when you have a face before you is never what you hear when you have before you a winding tape.
Oriana Fallaci

Image
Wojtyla was a warrior, who did more to end the Soviet Union than even America.
Oriana Fallaci
Image
I cry, sometimes, because I'm not 20 years younger, and I'm not healthy. But if I were, I would even sacrifice my writing to enter politics.
Oriana Fallaci
Image
Physical courage is a great test.
Oriana Fallaci
Image
Sometimes the dead are more alive than the living. And they can kill the living.
Oriana Fallaci
