“It’s not that the story is not getting expressed. It’s what surrounds the story. The climate, the atmosphere of the street, the feeling of the people, the gossip of the town; the smell; the thousands and thousands of elements that are part of the events you read about in 600 words of your morning paper.”
Kapuscinsky, em entrevista ao New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2007/01/24/world/europe/24kapuscinski.html?ref=world, consulta efectuada hoje)
