- 0:04Because we've asked many people and we're into this peace paused the world for peace.
- 0:10I guess the question the following, what is peace for you so great?
- 0:15What's peace for you? Peace for me is when people can recognize that
- 0:23everyone, the entire world over, man, woman, child, no matter
- 0:27what culture or background religion you come from, we are all more than ninety

- 0:44spiritually, in all aspects. And peace for me is when people recognize
- 0:49that and see the value that they can bring to each other and the world
- 0:53around them by doing more together. I'm going to just say something usually don't,

- 1:17and Richie Havens started Woodstock, with which I didn't go to because I was

- 1:55event because the city doesn't feel they have enough people to oversee sixty thousand more
- 2:02people and the Great Lawn. In any case, I was going to create
- 2:07the largest human peace signs, seven monitors, one for each continent. It
- 2:10was a big show. It'll be another time. It's better because I didn't
- 2:15have the money. But if I stay on your phone calls, that money
- 2:17will come in and there'll be so much of it I'll smoke it like a
- 2:22Stigart. In any case, I had a character this case. In any
- 2:28case, the bottom line is, Richie said to me and it's in the
- 2:31movie Temperate. He gave it a ten percent number. He said, ten
