My life has been charmed in the sense that I've met some extraordinary people. But at the end of the day, when you go home and you go to bed, and if you're on your own, you never think of yourself in that way. I'm sure not even people like Angelina Jolie think like that.

For me, personally, life in South Africa had come to an end. I had been lucky in some of the whites I had met.
