We can build a society grounded on friendship and our common humanity - a society founded on tolerance. That is the only road open to us.

If we are to accomplish anything in this world, it will in equal measure be due to the work and achievements of others.

There are so many men and women who hold no distinctive positions but whose contribution towards the development of society has been enormous. Some of them are not known even in their own countries, but when you come across them you are very impressed. Those are heroes or heroines we must never forget. Because of their service to society, you can't really help but admire them.
