• If you were a Colombian, you would have your version of an empanada. If you are an Argentinean, you might find a dough that's baked and has a butter sheen on it. And then in Ecuador, you'll find more crispy-fried empanadas. So, yeah, every culture has their own version of empanadas.

• The rich and powerful countries are trying to wreck as much as possible. You know, go off the cliff as soon as you can. Extract every drop of hydrocarbons off the ground and destroy the environment. At the opposite extreme are countries like Bolivia and Ecuador, indigenous people around the world, and first nations in Canada and tribal people in India, campesinos in Colombia... They're trying to save the commons.

• Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia, and Nicaragua have made a tremendous leap just by rejecting the neoliberal adjustment policies, they are making a statement from the social perspective. Capital in these cases has not been protected in any way which along with non - interference of the state is what neo liberalism stands for. It has gone the other way around; they have looked for social policies from the political movements and then when they have acquired the power of those political movements they have become in charge of the State.

• Aquí tenemos un caso, el caso sueco, en el que nunca se me ha acusado de un delito, en el que ya he sido absuelto [por el fiscal de Estocolmo] y declarado inocente, en el que la propia mujer dijo que la policía se lo había inventado, en el que las Naciones Unidas dijeron formalmente que todo el asunto es ilegal, en el que el Estado de Ecuador también investigó y determinó que se me debía dar asilo. Esos son los hechos, pero ¿cuál es la retórica?

• Hice una solicitud de asilo a Ecuador en esta embajada, debido al caso de extradición de EE.UU., y el resultado fue que después de un mes, tuve éxito en mi solicitud de asilo.

• WikiLeaks no publica desde la jurisdicción de Ecuador, desde esta embajada o en el territorio de Ecuador; publicamos desde Francia, publicamos desde, desde Alemania, publicamos desde los Países Bajos y desde una serie de otros países, por lo que el intento de apretar a WikiLeaks es a través de mi condición de refugiado; y esto es, esto es realmente intolerable.

• RAW is very forgiving. I was photographing a farm woman in Ecuador cooking over a small fire and my fill flash didn't go off a few times. I was about to delete the RAW files but decided to play with the curves first because I like the composition. It turned out that the image, although underexposed by two stops, was better than the fill-flashed images because the fire was the only source of illumination and it looked more real.
