“It’s very easy for you journalists to get people to discuss our time. We understand that. We know it’s your job and you have to do it. We laugh about it, we welcome it with a bit of bitterness, and then we move on.”
Everyone has the right to have their opinion of us, but we are the only ones who know who we are. We know what to do and how we will do it.
