![When I saw that scene [in ocean from the Aquarius] for the first time, it blew me away. It caused me to reflect on my age, my history and all that I've been through in Brazil.

It was like the plastic had been removed from my head. Even if this breath turned out to be my last, at least I got to have this one moment of release. At least I got this one chance.](/assets/img/quote-photos/when-i-saw-that-scene-in-ocean-from-the-aquarius-for-the-first-time-it-blew-me.jpg)
