   "The only thing I really regret...[is] just to have studied foreign   
   languages and not learnt an African language. So like most other South   
   Africans , there I am sitting with my black friends and we're all   
   talking in English, and then I may go out of the room perhaps to get a   
   bucket of ice or something and come back...and they have broken into   
   their own language. They're talking Setswana, they're talking Zulu,   
   whatever, and I am then a stranger in my own country and among my own   
   people."
