Israel was born under the British mandate. We learned from the British what democracy means, and how it behaves in a time of danger, war and terror. We thank Britain for introducing freedom and respect of human rights both in normal and demanding circumstances. ↗

Swimming is normal for me. I'm relaxed. I'm comfortable, and I know my surroundings. It's my home. ↗

I think many of my books, including 'Handle with Care,' including 'My Sister's Keeper,' circle back to how far are we willing to go for the people we love? I think love changes the way we think. It's the thing that takes you out of what your normal set of beliefs would be. ↗

Normal social behavior requires that we be able to recognize identities in spite of change. Unless we can do so, there can be no human society as we know it. ↗
