"What we need most is to restore and revive our humanity.
We must create a society where people can live with dignity,
a society where people can live in peace and happiness.
People are tired of hatred and conflict.
They want to live with more wisdom, confidence and in peace.
It may seem like a long and distant path,
but I am convinced that the twenty-first century must see a movement
to sow the seeds of peace, happiness and trust in every person's heart.
The seeds of a truly humane way of life."
Daisaku Ikeda
