• I feel that the recent ruling of the United States Army and Navy regarding the refusal of colored blood donors is an indefensible one from any point of view.

• Resistance here doesn't mean revolution. It doesn't mean storming the barricades. Resistance means using art for the things that it does best, which is to create human portraits and communicate ideas and forge a climate where people of different races or classes are known to you because they make themselves known. In the simplest terms, art humanizes. It opens the circuit of empathy. And once that process happens, it's that much harder to think of people as part of a policy or a statistic. Art reverses the alienation that can creep into society.

• It's hard to come up with a 'quote' about myself. Perhaps I could say that most of my writing has been concerned with understanding between people.

• It is notable how little empathy is cultivated or valued in our society. I put this down to our traditional racism and obsessive sectarianism.
