“If everyone and everything living in the world can manage to look at the world through the eyes of everyone else and everything else, the world can truly become a beautiful place! Look at the world through the eyes of a deer, look at it through the eyes of a Christian, look at it through the eyes of a Muslim, look at it through the eyes of a Jew, look at it through the eyes of a flower or an insect! Abandon yourself, enter the minds of others and look at the world from there, understand everyone and everything, and find a solution accordingly!”
