"Robin planned on taking hundreds of pictures in Chamlett. Look at the poverty in Appalachia. See the cracked, scarred hands of the old women. Hovels in the hills with corrugated tin walls. The thick smoke rising from breaking chimneys. A region mired in its own filth, a people mistaking their own death throes for survival." — 9 hours, 46 min ago

“He said that while the huérfano might feel that he no longer belonged among men he must set this feeling aside for he contained within him a largeness of spirit which men could see and that men would wish to know him and that the world would need him even as he needed the world for they were one.”
