Gilberto Gil

"Brazil was, is, and will be in fashion."

"Like most artists and musicians, I considered myself detached from the political life…but I had an insight that maybe we would have a political contribution to make in the future."

"[on the "tropicalization" of intellectual property laws] To make the digital world join in the samba…"

"Brasília is a weird place but I like being here. I can focus on the job here, there's no city madness and I don't need urban stimulation."
