In Terms Intellectually, [what] Shaped My Life Was The Whole Munich Thing [the Munich Agreement] That I Knew About All My Life, In Terms Of How Large Powers Make Decisions That Affect Small Countries, And The Unintended Consequences Of That. The Other Part Is I Knew About The Holocaust. L Just Didn't Know That It Applied To My Family. But That Did Affect The Way I Thought About What I Was Seeing As Ethnic Cleansing In The Balkans; There's No Question About That.

In Terms Intellectually, [what] Shaped My Life Was The Whole Munich Thing [the Munich Agreement] That I Knew About All My Life, In Terms Of How Large Powers Make Decisions That Affect Small Countries, And The Unintended Consequences Of That. The Other Part Is I Knew About The Holocaust. L Just Didn't Know That It Applied To My Family. But That Did Affect The Way I Thought About What I Was Seeing As Ethnic Cleansing In The Balkans; There's No Question About That.

Jewels Have Played A Colorful Part In The Evolution Of World Affairs. Because Precious Stones Tend To Inspire Both Admiration And Greed, Leaders Have Found Convenient Excuses For Seeking Them And Have Used Them To Impress Crowds, Reward Friends, Deprive Foes, Forge Alliances, And Justify War. Jewels May Find Their Highest Expression In The Decorative Arts, But They Have Also Earned A Place In The Art Of The Possible.
