  • nize a right a right which, among all the rights which have lately been listed, has hardly been listed at all and that is what | would call the right to affirm. This is an- other way of describing the right to express ones willingness to share. Perhaps one of our better clues here is a form of sharing which again is too rare to- day, and that is prayer. Prayer is a form of communication, a form of sharing, and in its more eloquent form, it is silence. | would like to conclude my remarks with a reminder of the forms of communi- cation and the forms of sharing which have gone out of fashion, with a reminder of the great advantages which come from reflec- tion and from the quest for the opportunity to share, and especially at this moment for the right to listen and the right to silence. This was eloquently expressed in a Jap- anese proverb which observes: He who knows nothing else knows enough if he knows when to be silent.
