‘When you see an image and it enters your mind, does it go to your head or does it go to your heart? What emotion does it convey? My father’s philosophy was that, in a world with war and suffering, is there a different way to look at things? If you look at things differently, maybe you can achieve a common understanding, and if you achieve a common understanding, you can build trust.’

「當你看到一個圖像，它出現在你的腦海裏時，觸動的是你的理性還是感性？它傳達了怎樣的情緒？我父親的理念是，在這個充滿戰爭和痛苦的世界中，是否存在另一種理解事物的方式？如果你能換個角度看問題，你也許就能建立共識，若能建立共識，就能建立信任。」
