“The sea has the power to take us in a totally liberating sensation, being considered heroic the ones who make him their livelihood.
José Domingues was the last caulker, the last artisan of the old boat repairment art, conductor of dreams and adventures.
Finally imortalized, in his old neighbourhood, the Fisherman´s neighbourhood in Setúbal.
Having the ocean blue that he so much admired as a background, his hardworking, honest face, now remains not only as a past memory but it will also help to create a future memory, as well.”
Sara Fabião
“It is urgent the love,
It is urgent a boat in the sea.
It is urgent to destroy certain words,
hate, solitude and cruelty,
some sorrows,
many swords.
It is urgent to invent joy, multiply kisses, the harvests,
It is urgent to discover roses and rivers,
and bright mornings.
The silence falls on the shoulders and the impure light until it hurts.
It is urgent the Love
It is urgent to remain.”
Poem by Eugénio de Andrade
