• In fact, we're both [with Elie Wiesel] engaged with the text. We search for different things, we find different things. There is a side of what he does that I'd like to do, a bit more privately. I'm not sure he is as interested in history, as I am.

• I was fascinated by the lack of a word for a parent who has lost a child. We have no word in English. I thought for sure there'd be a word in Irish but there is none. And then I looked in several other languages and could not find one, until I found the word Sh'khol in Hebrew. I'm still not sure why so many languages don't have a word for this sort of bereavement, this shadowing.

• I am not sure that I know enough about the pre-history of 9/11 to agree or disagree. But I did think at the time that the [George W.] Bush administration took a number of cues from the Israeli government, not only by drawing on and intensifying anti-Arab racism, but by insisting that the attack on US government and financial buildings was an attack on "democracy" and by invoking "security at all costs" to wage war without a clear focus (why the Taliban?), and by suspending both constitutional rights and the regular protocol for congressional approval for declaring war.

• Otro tipo de placer afloró después, el placer de ver caer las torres una y otra vez, la experiencia de quedarse embelesado por el espectáculo visual, y luego también las formas muy gráficas de duelo público por ciudadanos ejemplares (que tuvo lugar al mismo tiempo que la negativa a llorar las vidas de los indocumentados, los extranjeros, los gays y las lesbianas que allí se perdieron, por ejemplo). No estoy seguro de que la culpa por el placer haya reinstalado al buen ciudadano.

• When people are not sure about their future, when their economies are suffering, when their personal fortunes are flagging, we have often in this country turned to nativism and xenophobia and racism and anti-immigrant sensibilities and passions to express our sense of outrage at what we can't control - and to forge a kind of fitful solidarity that turns out to be rather insular - we look inward and not outward.

• One of the things I think about with Donald Trump is what are his words actually attached to? With Trump, I'm not sure the words have roots. They are emanations of his psyche, but has he thought it through? Is there an argument, is there a policy implication?

• I'm not sure [Donald] Trump has had that distinction between private and public life in his head. And so, I think there's likely to be an erosion of just that standard, that different standard, consciousness, and I think it's likely we'll see what we haven't seen in the last eight years and even the last 12 or 16 of private enrichment in office and scandals where people have to resign and things like that, because just once the standards go, behavior tends to go.

• No estoy seguro de que los líderes escuchen lo suficiente, especialmente a su gente. Y siempre he pensado en todo lo que he intentado hacer en mi vida, en los trabajos que he tenido, es que si podemos apagar nuestros transmisores y encender nuestros receptores más a menudo, somos mejores líderes y sabemos más de lo que está pasando y, por lo tanto, podemos liderar más eficazmente.
