"I can hear the death pangs, the painful death cries of an old, outworn system dying! At this time, we have to be very, very careful! Because, like animals in their death throes, in a state of the denial of their inevitable death, struggling for their last breath, they're very, very dangerous.
But, at the same time, if we listen carefully, we can hear the beautiful sounds of the birth cries, emerging everywhere, of a new Springtime, a new Day! A Time, in which we'll fully realize who we truly are and that each and every one of us is sovereignty, ancient, imperishable and everlasting! We will also recognize that we're all part of one indivisible Human Family, unified in our diversity!"
