8. UPSOUND (English) Salman Rushdie, author:
"One of the things Martin was asking what a writer is for in a free society - I would suggest that one of the things a writer is for is to say the unsayable, to speak the unspeakable, to ask difficult questions. You know, politicians have answers, everyone's got answers, answers are cheap- answers are two a penny - questions are hard to find."

"I think it was a really serious matter for the Iranians to reverse this long established policy and I myself belief and I have reason to believe that this was not done by President Khatami and Foreign Minister Kharrazi on their own but that there was, if you like, consensus about this at the highest levels of Iran. I don't believe it could have been done otherwise."

If you're a free expression organization, if you believe in the value of free speech, then you must believe in the value of free speech that you don't like. If you only defend free speech that conforms to your own moral framework that's what is normally called censorship."

STORYLINE:
ARCHIVE FOOTAGE OF SALMAN RUSHDIE, WHO HAS BEEN STABBED ONSTAGE IN NEW YORK
Salman Rushdie, the author whose writing led to death threats from Iran in the 1980s, was attacked and apparently stabbed in the neck Friday by a man who rushed the stage as he was about to give a lecture in western New York.
  
An Associated Press reporter witnessed a man confront Rushdie on stage at the Chautauqua Institution and begin punching or stabbing him 10 to 15 times as he was being introduced. The 75-year-old author was pushed or fell to the floor, and the man was arrested.
  
Rushdie was taken by helicopter to a hospital, state police said. His condition was not immediately known.
  
Rabbi Charles Savenor was among the hundreds of people in the audience. Amid gasps, spectators were ushered out of the outdoor amphitheater.
  
“This guy ran on to platform and started pounding on Mr. Rushdie. At first you’re like, ‘What’s going on?’ And then it became abundantly clear in a few seconds that he was being beaten,” Savenor said. He said the attack lasted about 20 seconds.
