Antoschka - Ekaterina Moshaeva: It's love. I learn love. When I was a child I didn't get enough love. These were circumstances, circumstances of life. And now I understand a lot of things. I must learn that people lose their human insticts. We mustn't hunt now. We lose our ability to run very quickly. We lose our sharpness because we don't need to bite somebody's neck anymore and we lose our contact with nature, we lose our contact with the Creator. We lose these abilities. As for me, I want to gain something, I want to learn myself. I want to give others, children, for instance, possibility to learn. I work much with children because they are able to smile and laugh. People who laugh cannot kill. You have never seen people being happy and falling in love and killing. It's impossible. I am working 35 years as a clown and I hope I bring people smiles, laugh and love and they give me all this back.

Alvaro Restrepo: What moves me? Well, the concept "motion" is really complicated in this sense. What moves you and what stops you? Well, I´m specifically concerned about movement, that´s called life. What moves me, I think, what gives me a boost to move is first of all hope. It is hope to feel, hope to make others feel and to be able to feel myself, hope to be able to enjoy moments of happiness and to enjoy being alive. Life is very short. With each second that passes by, our biological clock reminds us of passing time and the shortness of life. I don´t believe in death. I believe that we transfrom after we die. I think we form part of the whole that constantly mutates. This mutation is what moves me.

Ana Lucy Bengochea: There is a difference between a person who has only a concept in his mind and a person who has really experienced margination and non-existence of chances. The latter situation gives you the impulse to change things, change the ideas?? about the two sexes, that there should be more chances for women, that they should have their space, that the native communities should change With this knowledge we could change the life of these people. They have to understand that the changes must begin from a basis and then continue up to the top. All this is what makes me do the job I do. I'm proud of it and feel happy working there.

Anthony Arnove: What moves me? So many things move me. Music moves me. Art moves me. I was recently moved by a moment at the end of the World Cup in the game between Italy and France. The image that dominated that game was the image of Zidane and the head butt. That was the image that went around the world and that came to symbolize the competition, the conflict, potentially the racism, and the xenophobia, the nationalism that goes along with the sport. But, there was a moment of tremendous beauty when before the penalty kicks, before the French and Italian goalkeepers went to their respective defense of their goal against the final round of penalty kicks, where the two goalkeepers hug one another and share the moment of human affection and solidarity that cut against so much of that nonsense competition, nationalism that is a part of sport, to show the real spirit of solidarity, and resistance even that can be expressed in sports. And that image, which received almost no attention, which just slipped into the nationalism, to the greed, to the xenophobia, to the nationalism of the World Cup in a so much commercial sport today really was a glimpse and something very powerful, very moving, very human and real.

Anuradha Mittal: What moves me? Well, let see. I think to know what I -- not only what I struggle against, but what I struggle for. Yeah, that’s what moves me, to know what I am struggling for, what I want, not just fighting against something. Another thing that really moves me, the innocence of a child, the faith that a child can put in a grownup.

Ashok Gangadean: Again, I find the statement of our friend Robert Thurman, a personal friend of mine, who speaks in a global voice about global wisdom and enlightment touches me deeply and moves me. Has moved me for many, many years as a philosopher. Over the past 45 years being called by the profound logos, the infinite field, to come closer and closer and deeper and to awakening my own mind and my own consciousness in my own life. That has been a moving force for me in my own journey as a global philosopher. Moving me across the old borders, across divisions of our cultures, and our religious spiritual forms of life. So I find that the call of the fundamental infinite field, whether you call it Logos, Sophia, Tao, Om, Brahman, Allah, Yahweh -- whatever name we give to that unifying force -- that is the force that I believe calls me and motivates me in my life and my journey as a human being and as a philosopher. And I think it is really what calls all of us on this planet together.

Audrey Kitagawa: Love moves me. And the acts of kindness of other people, the courage that exists within the hearts of people to be able to face and rise above their personal challenges as well as global challenges. And to see the generosity of people. When I travel to countries where people live in abject poverty, where water is a scarce resource, and to be a guest in their humble homes, to be offered a glass of water knowing how precious water is and to see their generosity in offering what is so scarce and precious to them in that glass of water, that gives me inspiration and that moves me to tears. To see how humbled I am by the greatness of the human spirit that is alive and well in others.

Avi Primor: First of all children. Not only because children are generally sweet but because children are a mystery. I look at the children and I always think: What will happen to them? In what kind of world will they live? How will they influence and move the world? But what moves me right know and not in the future like children do, are those people who dare to go their own way and not the way of all the others. Those who think independently and on their own. Those who think differently. Who try to understand things that are self-evident to others. In my youth one of these persons was the singer Georges Brassens who was cheeky, yes. The bourgeois people didn't like him. Later he became a hero. And in my country, Israel, the people who understand or try to understand the other side. Even when they are treated like traitors. Who go a step further and say: Yes, but why is it this way? Why can't it be different? Don't we make mistakes? Don't we get it wrong? These people make themselves unpopular. They sometimes are despised by their entourage and their own people. But they insist. They move me. I'm not always sharing their opinion but they move me.
