| "The world is filled with sorrow by the war.
A weapon causes sorrow. Especially, the nuclear weapon is one of the most dangerous weapons. Many people suffered a serious wound by a nuclear weapon and died in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Then, what should we do for such a vast sorrow? The answer is one. It is to take sorrow. I think we cannot understand the terror of the nuclear weapon enough without taking sorrow. I drew this picture with the thought. In my picture, a foot and arm drawn on the upper part expressed late people by a nuclear weapon and expressed their pains and sorrow with the tears which overflow from eyes of the middle part. And both hands catch the tears. The both hands are symbols of our heart taking sorrow. I want you to think about what we should do for the extinction of the nuclear weapon through this picture. Let's pray for peaceful world realization without the nuclear weapon. And let's begin that we can do it for nuclear weapon extinction!" |
