Which line is cited as the Pain quote for War Photographer?

• A. He has a job to do.
• B. There is pain in his heart.
• C. ...they do not care.
• D. A hundred agonies

Answer: (D)

The line that serves as the Pain quote is the opening line that directly names suffering: “A hundred agonies in black and white.” This choice is the best because it instantly conveys intense pain (agonies) and shows it through the photographer’s medium (black and white photographs). The phrase sets up the central tension of War Photographer—the way brutal, personal pain is captured and then presented to a distant audience who may react emotionally but remain morally detached. The other options aren’t actual lines from the poem and don’t capture that stark, image-driven sense of pain the poem foregrounds.
