"Imagine if we treated each other like we all really came from the same family. ... I know people probably think I'm crazy because I'm always telling everyone 'I love you! I love you!' Because the minute that I meet somebody I do love them because I know in my heart and in my spirit that that's my brother and my sister, that's my neighbor. If I make a connection, a relationship whether it be one minute, one year or the rest of my life, if you are in my life, I love you."
