The answer is that I don't, so I admire the master. What is even more admirable is his rebirth. After experiencing the Eye of Darkness, he was once again healed in this world. I see a more inclusive, peaceful, and greater world.

The Salt of the Earth quotes

  • Sebastião Salgado - Photographer: We are a ferocious animal. We humans are terrible animals. Our history is a history of wars. It's an endless story, a tale of madness.

  • Sebastião Salgado - Photographer: To think that these three-month-old trees will reach their apex in 400 years. Perhaps from there we could try to grasp the concept of eternity. Maybe eternity is measurable.
