Salman Rushdie
My children are English, and both of their mothers were English.
Salman Rushdie

Salman Rushdie
Very often, people who actually pick up a book of mine for the first time are kind of surprised. And I get these letters saying, well, who knew that you were good, you know?
Salman Rushdie
Home has become such a scattered, damaged, various concept in our present travails. There is so much to yearn for. There are so few rainbows any more.
Salman Rushdie
I'm a novelist. Fortunately I don't have to rule the world.
Salman Rushdie
