Dead Poets Society
At the United Nations Headquarters on August 12, 2014, Robin Williams was celebrated during the opening of the International Youth Day. In the presence of U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki Moon, Assistant Secretary General Thomas Gass paid tribute to Williams by standing on the pulpit of the ECOSOC Chamber and quoting Keating's lines from the 1989 film "Dead Poets Society": "Dare to look at things in a different way!" Several fans similarly paid tribute to Williams on social media with photo and video reenactments of "Dead Poets Society"s "O Captain! My Captain!" scene.
