I hope that saintly Robert Schuman, my compatriot from Alsace-Lorraine who founded the European Union will be canonized before the end of this century. The world needs badly political saints. I am glad to be a member of his canonization commission.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume III Chapter 3 The Miracle of Childhood |
|
In the US schools attended by my grandchildren I am known as the grandfather who puts french fries into his ears and nose and does all kinds of other funny things. Children also like me to play my 10 holes little harmonica on which I am able to play the Ode to Joy by Beethoven. At the school of El Rodeo, the little hamlet where the UN University is located, the children translated the Ode to Joy of Beethoven into Spanish to sing it when I come to play the harmonica for them at their graduations and celebrations. I am so happy that those children love me and might not forget me.
