films for the greater good
“To see the earth as it truly is, small and blue and beautiful, in that eternal silence where it floats, is to see ourselves as riders on the earth together, brothers on that bright loveliness in the cold — brothers who know now they are truly brothers.”
—Archibald MacLeish
