I Have Been So Lucky

I Left The Table Where There Were Important People And Had Lunch With My Husband And A Few Friends. The Reception Was Organised In My Honour, So It Was Rather Amusing.

Once I Was Condemned To Three Months' Absolute Silence. As I Could Not Speak, I Wrote A Book.

I Thought It Was Respectful To Each Country To Sing In Their Language.

If I Was Sad Or Afraid, I Would Sit In A Corner And Sing. If I Was Happy I Would Jump Into The Middle Of The Room And Sing. It Was How I Expressed My Emotions.

I Always Try To See Things With Children's Eyes. Are They Happy? Sad? What Do They Need? Everywhere I Went, I Realized That Children Are Society's Victims ... We Have A Duty To Speak To Political Leaders, To Influence People To Give These Children A Better Future.
