The older people that one admires seem to be fearless. They go right out into the world. Its astounding. Maybe they cant see or they cant hear, but they walk out into the street and take life as it comes. Theyre models of courage, in a strange way. – James Hillman
Normally street children are shown in terms of the tragedy of their lives – which is true – but theres also another dimension: their wisdom, dignity and enormous capacity for survival. – Henning Mankell
