“I love my scars. It reminds me where I come from.” — Phan Thi Kim Phuc

If I ever see those pilots who dropped the bombs on me - or any American pilots - I would say to them, 'The war is over. The past is past.' I would ask those pilots what can they do to bring us all together.

I had a lot of pity for myself. But I could concentrate more on my studies as a result.

We should work together to be of peace and happiness for all people in all nations.

I did not think that I could marry or have any children because of my burns. But now I have a wonderful husband, a lovely child and a happy family, thank God.
