"You should have a good knowledge of history, of geopolitics, of sociology and anthropology to understand the society that we’re part of and to understand yourself and where you’re from in order to make choices. A lack of this knowledge will be much more limiting than any technical ability."
Sebastião Salgado, his advice to young documentary photographers. (via fotojournalismus)
"I don’t care about someone being intelligent; any situation between people, when they are really human with each other, produces “intelligence."
Susan Sonntag (via georgp)
"We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again."
F. Scott Fitzgerald (via literaturesluts)
