Thou hast brought the distant near and made a brother of the stranger.

Let us work together for unity and love.

The golden way is to be friends with the world and to regard the whole human family as one.

Our ability to reach unity in diversity will be the beauty and the test of our civilization.

Sports have the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire, the power to unite people in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sports can create hope, where there was once only despair. It is more powerful than governments in breaking down racial barriers. It laughs in the face of all types of discrimination. Sports is the game of lovers.

I wish to be Prime Minister and in close and daily communication by telephone with the President of the United States. There is nothing we could not do if we were together.
