"Dia suka bercerita. Dia ada di mana-mana di dunia. Perbatasan barat laut, pemandangan Hindu Kush, adalah salah satu pemandangan indah masa kecil saya karena ia biasa membangkitkannya dengan kisah-kisahnya. Dia mengajari saya urutan pangkat di pasukan Inggris ketika saya berusia sekitar delapan tahun. Aku ada di ranjang bersamanya sementara dia menceritakan segalanya tentang hidupnya - kecuali, mungkin, hal-hal nyata, karena tentu saja kau tidak bisa pergi ke sana."

He loved telling stories. He had been everywhere in the world. The northwest frontier, the landscape of the Hindu Kush, was one of the great landscapes of my childhood because he used to evoke it with his stories. He taught me the sequence of ranks in the British army when I was about eight. I was in the bed with him while he told me everything about his life - except, probably, the real things, because of course you couldn't go there.
