About this sound
This three-second clip features Thanos speaking the line “A small price to pay for salvation” in a calm, measured voice. It feels cold and unsettling, as if a terrible choice has already been accepted without regret. The line comes from Avengers: Infinity War, spoken after Thanos sacrifices Gamora to obtain the Soul Stone.
