Richard John Price (born 1966 in Reading, England) is a British poet, novelist, and translator.
“You don't write about the horrors of war. No. You write about a kid's burnt socks lying in the road.””
“Jonathan sighed. The price of being misunderstood, he thought. They call you devil or they call you god.””
“It was strictly forbidden to preach to other prisoners. It was understood that whoever was caught doing this received a severe beating. A number of us decided to pay the price for the privilege of preaching, so we accepted their [the communists' ] terms. It was a deal; we preached and they beat us. We were happy preaching. They were happy beating us, so everyone was happy.””
