Naive Writing Can Still Hold Profound Reflections
The speaker mentions their prior lack of personal interest in war but expresses a deep fascination with Afghanistan's history and Britain's involvement in world wars. They highlight the idea that one does not need to be qualified to write about a certain topic and can still convey deep reflections by writing in a naive manner, drawing a parallel to William Blake's 'Songs of Innocence.' This approach can allow one to express profound thoughts and insights in a seemingly simple way.
