Cellist Pablo Casals greets first lady Jacqueline Kennedy after a concert given in the White House in November 1961.

Each second we live in a new and unique moment of the universe, a moment that never was before and will never be again.
And what do we teach our children in school? We teach them that two and two makes four, and that Paris is the capital of France.
When will we also teach them what they are? We should say to each of them:
You must cherish one another. You must work we all must work to make this world worthy of its children.
Pablo Casals

Each second we live in a new and unique moment of the universe, a moment that never was before and will never be again.
And what do we teach our children in school? We teach them that two and two makes four, and that Paris is the capital of France.
When will we also teach them what they are? We should say to each of them:
Do you know what you are? You are a marvel. You are unique. In all of the world there is no other child exactly like you. In the millions of years that have passed there has never been another child like you.
And look at your body what a wonder it is! Your legs, your arms, your cunning fingers, the way you move! You may become a Shakespeare, a Michelangelo, a Beethoven.
You have the capacity for anything. Yes, you are a marvel.
And when you grow up, can you then harm another who is, like you, a marvel?
You must cherish one another. You must work we all must work to make this world worthy of its children.
Pablo Casals
