Politics is about putting yourself in a state of grace.
We have invented a new human right here - the right to return home after a war.
I've had much nastier things said about me in the British press than in the Bosnian press.
We who came here saw what was happening. This was far more than a war in a faraway place. This was a moral imperative, a terrible vision of the future.
What my future will not be is active politics in the Liberal Democrat party.
We have to make their livelihoods viable, get them the proper prices for their produce, try and make them stay rather than sell their property and leave again.
It was a superb agreement to end a war, but a very bad agreement to make a state. From now on, we have to part company with Dayton and try to build a modern democratic state, for which I have tried to lay the foundations.
