The most powerful and unsetting idea in Kofi Annan Nobel Peace Prize speech is in the beginning when he talks about the United Nations forum being created and what it is. His whole speech is powerful and he backs up every argument.
In paragraph 6 he discusses his beliefs and the mission of the United Nations, but one part stuck out the most to me, " We must focus, as never before, on improving the conditions of the individual men and women who give the state or nation its richness character" I think it is powerful and gets to the point. He compares this century to the last century, which helps his arguments and shows us we need to make a change.
I really like the quote you pulled from the Austin, I strongly believe in what Kofi says. We should all improve or condtions for men and women.
ReplyDeleteThe quote is very inspirational and shows how each individual person has their own importance in the society.
