“Can you not see the difference between an irresponsible pleasure tripper and a dinghy full of migrants? It was not the most wellmeaning question, but actually it was quite easy to answer because my profession requires us to make no distinction, so that’s what I said, and that I should be congratulated for not making one: you rescue everyone without distinction.

― Vincent Delecroix, Small Boat
