Quotes from the same author

Every painted image of something is also about the absence of the real thing. All painting is about the presence of absence.
 John Berger
What any true painting touches is an absence - an absence of which without the painting, we might be unaware. And that would be our loss.
 John Berger
One of the fundamental reasons why so many doctors become cynical and disillusioned is precisely because, when the abstract idealism has worn thin, they are uncertain about the value of the actual lives of the patients they are treating. This is not because they are callous or personally inhuman: it is because they live in and accept a society which is incapable of knowing what a human life is worth.
 John Berger

 John Berger
Nothing fortuitous happens in a child's world. There are no accidents. Everything is connected with everything else and everything can be explained by everything else. . . . For a young child everything that happens is a necessity.
 John Berger
