 For me, there was no hesitation, because while music and art and museums are not all that enrich my life, books are my life. And of course I cannot pick one book. Nobody can. But this list of picking ten out of millions give you also the possibility to mention the ones you did not pick. That's why you do this list. Because on the bottom of it, what I would like to convey to a young person is not a book, but the love of books. But I followed, I followed. And of course there's a question, why books? And there are many answers. One is that books are agents of empathy. So if you have wandered through the night woods with junior barns, if you have suffered with Push in Sapphire, with Precious, it's her name, it's also a movie, if you've suffered with Precious in Sapphire, it's novel Push. If you've been sad with Cerumi and Banana Yoshimoto's novel Amrita, which is so beautiful, it's very hard to be a racist afterwards. Or to be a sexist. So it's compassion and it's understanding. And it is this feeling of unity and difference of morals and mischief and of triumphant trauma. Books are witnesses and agents of witnesses and perpetrators, perpetrators they are, of what we call the human nature. Which is paradox kind and problematic and at the same time astonishingly beautiful. But at the bottom of it there's only one life. There's only one life. There's only everybody's one life. And this is why I would choose a philosophical book. I will not talk about the books I did not mention. I'll get it out right away. I'll choose Seneca's Life is Short. Life is Short is a letter. Seneca, like about 2,000 years ago, has written to his friend Paulinos about the importance of taking care of one's own soul and the importance of leaving one's own life. It's very beautiful, very simple and very deep. And it reminds us what it means to be human. That is to be alive and responsible. That means to respond to that lifeness. So Seneca's book challenges us over the abyss of time to answer with our own life. Then I got the second question. So what would you do now? Teach the younglings. And of course I forgot the most important thing in my essay. Because I think reflection and correction often go hand in hand. I forgot to tell. The first thing I would say to a young person would be, I would encourage him or her. Encourage men. I would tell my students that every one of them has everything. They need to make their own life and that they are smart. And that they really would like to hear their thoughts. And you know what, I really do this. I do this with my students. And it really works. And sometimes they even object to me. That's what you get then. But seriously, what I would teach them first would be the paradox nature of the human animal. Like this strange coexistence of freedom and dependence. Of good and evil, of greatness and stupidity or uselessness. It's not the same. And in one self. And in all ourselves. And in the society and in our species. And so to understand that we're not torn by this Aristotelian based logic of either or. But we are creatures of as well as. As in beauty as well as suffering. And hereby we totally avoid any form of dogmatism. Like Adorno said, the whole is the untrue. And by that you always have a little room for dissent. So I would not encourage them to be themselves. I would encourage them to be their many selves. And then I would tell them that all good things take time. And that if you want to really be good at something. Have to strive and to struggle so hard your fucking bones bleed. And then I would tell them they would fail. And then get up again. And then fail again and get up again and like, you know the story. Perseverance, perseverance, perseverance. And a sense of humor. Because humor is the ability to take everything very serious and everything very not serious at the same time. And boy you really have to know yourself to laugh at yourself. And so I think this kind of paradox strategy is the best answer to this wicked wonder we call life. Thank you.
