A person's worth is quite independent of their usefulness to society.

If we dare to come closer to our fellow human beings, we will be able to see and understand them better.

Each individual is unique. We all have equal worth. Young and old, those who can cope and those who need help.

Extremists and populist movements are exploiting people's fear of those who are not like us. We can see the consequences in the form of terrorism and racially motivated violence.

The burden of proof is now on the Palestinians... They must fight terrorism and dismantle its infrastructures in order to make possible progress on the roadmap.

Unfortunately, religion, like patriotism, is easy to misuse for political purposes.

We have a good life when we manage to live with both satisfied and unsatisfied needs, when we are not obsessed by what is beyond our reach.
