We Are Not Free To Walk On

You Do Not Lose Your Value Or Preciousness When You Grow To Be A Adult. You Are Still That Miraculous Creation. You Must Work, We Must All Work, To Make The World Worthy Of Its Children.

In Music, In The Sea, In A Flower, In A Leaf, In An Act Of Kindness... I See What People Call God In All These Things.

Yes, It Is True. I Am A Miracle. I Am A Miracle Like A Tree Is A Miracle, Like A Flower Is A Miracle. Now, If I Am A Miracle, Can I Do A Bad Thing? I Can't, Because I Am A Miracle, I Am A Miracle. . . .

One Should Be Able To Say To Our Children: You Are A Marvel! You Are Unique. In All 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! ... And When You Grow Up, Can You Harm Another Who Is, Like You, A Marvel?

I Am A Very Simple Man. I Am A Man First, An Artist Second. My First Obligation Is To The Welfare Of My Fellow Man. I Will Endeavour To Meet This Obligation Through Music, Since It Transcends Language, Politics And National Boundaries.
