WORDS OF WISDOM

I became a vegetarian twenty years ago today. Meat-free diet injects compassion and joy into my blood, and I feel deeply it is just the right kind of food for all people.

This is my fourth time to Columbia University. The future of humanity is closely tied to the education offered at these top institutions in the world. Hopefully, love and wisdom can be part of the curriculum of every university.
