I find her an extraordinary person. The kind of time and love that she gives for all of her humanitarian efforts and her artistic efforts is really remarkable and unusual that not that many people have that combination of instincts and impulses as she does. I’d like to thank her for her worldwide work which is ongoing and which does so much for so many people. I think that she’s unique and remarkable and has so much to give, which she is giving. Some people have a lot to give but they don’t. And others try, but they don’t have a lot to give. And that’s very admirable but she has both, and that’s very unique, and the fact that she is able to do that is a great gift to me and to everybody. I’m grateful.
