"Kids can be full of inspiring aspirations and hopeful thinking, like my wish that no one went hungry or that everything were a free kind of utopia. How many of you still dream like that and still believe in the possibilities? Sometimes a knowledge of history and the past failures of utopian ideals can be a burden because you know that if everything were free, then the food stocks would become depleted, and scarce and lead to chaos. On the other hand, we kids still dream...
No matter your position or place in life, it is imperative to create opportunities for children so that we can grow up to blow you away.
Adults and fellow TEDsters, you need to listen and learn from kids and trust us and expect more from us. You must lend an ear today, because we are the leaders of tomorrow."
