One Thing: Children

 

"You are a marvel. You are unique. In all of the world there is no other child exactly like you. In the millions of years that have passed there has never been another child like you... You may become a Shakespeare, a Michelangelo, a Beethoven. You have the capacity for anything. Yes, you are a marvel. 

And when you grow up, can you then harm another who is like you, a marvel? 

You must cherish one another. You must work—we must all work—to make this world worthy of its children."
