In this speech, Saunders advocates for the idea that kindness and love towards others is the most important aspect of the life of any individual. Saunders states that although people generally grow kinder with age and personal experience, people should focus on being proactive in their own process of increasing the roles of love and kindness in their actions and outlooks. This piece explores themes of kindness, ambition, and aging.
