We watched on our screens the footage captured by his assistnat's camera, in which he was up to his knees in muck, a microphone in his hand, in the midst of a bedlam of lost children, wounded survivors, corpses, and devastation... For years he has been a familiar figure in newscasts, reporting live at the scene of battles and catastrophes."
  • "Rolf gave up the fight and surrendered to the torture of watching the girl die... Rolf assured her that he loved her... more than all the women... [he] prayed in silence that she would die quickly, because such pain cannot be borne."
