I want to throw the seeds all over the world. That’s my responsibility.

"I feel I am responsible for the rest of the world, whatever is happening in the world I am responsible. Whether what is happening in Belfast or the riots in England, or the Middle East threat of war, or the starvation in India, and so on and so on. As a human being who is part of the rest of humanity I feel I am responsible, deeply. It is not just a verbal conclusion but I feel that very strongly. And I have been working with all of you and I feel I am also responsible for all of you. And I don’t want that responsibility to fade away, to wither away, to die. I want to meet you, I want to discuss with you. That’s all I mean. And also I will be concerned whether it is merely a small group that are holding the vase in which the flower is growing, but holding it in a small little group, but I want to throw the seeds all over the world. That’s my responsibility. It doesn’t matter who understands or who doesn’t understand but it is my responsibility to sow the seed wherever it will fall – on a piece of dry earth or in a fertile soil."
