A commitment to human rights cannot be fostered simply through the transmission of knowledge. Action and experience play a crucial role in the learning process.

Rise to the challenges that life presents you. You can't develop genuine character and ability by sidestepping adversity and struggle.

Rather than becoming discouraged, know that encountering a wall is proof of the progress that you have made so far.

It's important to resolve to yourself, 'I will absolutely win!' Then this firm commitment will serve as the wellspring of great wisdom and courage that surges forth from within.

While conservatism and self-protection might be likened to winter, night, and death, the spirit of pioneering and attempting to realize ideals evokes images of spring, morning, and birth.

Hopes, dreams, faith and a sense of mission enable us to open up our lives.

Keep moving forward, even one or two steps, in your own way. Those who live out their lives to the fullest, unperturbed by the noisy clamor around them, are the true winners.
