"I once had the honour of meeting with the late Nobel Peace Prize laureate Betty Williams, a true champion of human rights and peace (in November 2006, in Tokyo).

"When I asked Mrs. Williams what sustained her tireless activities, she replied: 'In this work, you need to have the courage of your convictions. You have to just keep at it and keep at it, no matter what people might say, and never give up.'

"It is important to have the courage of our convictions in faith, too. Courage is an expression of strong faith."
