• Las decisiones que tomamos, individual y personalmente, se convierten en el tejido de nuestras vidas. Esa tela será bella o fea según los hilos con los que esté tejida. Quiero decir especialmente a los jóvenes que están aquí que no pueden permitirse ningún comportamiento impropio sin dañar la belleza del tejido de sus vidas. Los actos inmorales de cualquier tipo introducirán un hilo feo. La deshonestidad de cualquier tipo creará una mancha. El lenguaje soez y profano despojará al patrón de su belleza.
