"I never wanted to write. I just wrote……" — Maeve Binchy

"I never wanted to write. I just wrote letters home from a kibbutz in Israel to reassure my parents that I was still alive and well fed and having a great time. They thought these letters were brilliant and sent them to a newspaper. So I became a writer by accident."

— Maeve Binchy
