This is a collection of quotes that were organized by Raina (presumably an old rasfwrj person) some time in 2001. Most of the original sources for the quotes she collected were found online, so those quotes aren’t included here. These are only the leftover quotes, and as a result we have no idea where they came from or when they were asked, unless there are clues in the text. Sometimes it’s not entirely clear if consecutive paragraphs are from different reports or the same report. We are, however, always searching for these lost interviews, and when we find them, we’ll delete the quotes from this collection. I’ll include Raina’s introductory comments below, along with a list of the categories, each of which links to a Google Doc containing a link to the original category and an annotated copy of the page’s original contents, linking to known sources and highlighting lost sources, which are the ones included here. Raina also drew from these interviews for her collection (and those quotes are not included here):

Marcon Report�Sorilea: May 2001
Below are collected various Jordan questions and answers, and reports from interviews. Not all quotes are guaranteed to be here, although I try to be thorough, and in some cases I’ve deleted answers that repeat material more or less verbatim. They are organized into categories by topic, and some are in more than one category, so you shouldn’t find it hard to find a quotation you’re looking for. Try ‘Miscellaneous’ if none of the categories seem to fit. As for such categories as ‘Sex and Sexuality’ and ‘Bela’�you asked the questions, I just sort them.
And please stop asking who killed Asmodean or if Moiraine will be back. ‘Read And Find Out’ is already far too long!
In several cases, the people who provided the quotes have included comments of their own on the questions or answers. As such, any interpretations of Jordan’s words do not necessarily represent my personal opinion. A few comments were written by me, and they are in blue text and signed Like this�Raina . so you should have no trouble working out which is which.
