To pay more attention, as Mr. Soyinka suggested X which I think is quite important X to how we got here. What happened in the past that led to these different ways, with an understanding, which would be quite new, that the past was not inevitable, that it was the result of a number of choices, a number of accidents, a number of assorted human decisions so that bad things were done in the past as well as things that were commendable. Mr. Koh is right, there is such a thing as hatred and contempt. There is such a thing as bad, nasty behaviour. That is an issue to continue discussing.
Language is very important.
Learning another language is not only learning different words for the same things, but learning another way to think about things. It is very important to continue to push for more foreign language education and to point out that this is an education not only in words, but an education in how to think, how minds work. X not that it is new but that we did not know about it before X the issue of ecology, of nature. That is such a profound change reflected in every aspect of human thought, religion, literature, art and history, that we still have not really come to grips with it, but it is something that is absolutely essential and certainly something that people everywhere necessarily will have in common. I would also like to notice that in this discussion about dialogue and where to go, both this morning and a good deal of what has been said here this afternoon, it has always been about the West versus the rest.
