"This is the character called Hito.
It's a Japanese character originally
from China. Two people leaning on
each other create this character. It
means 'human' ... I think it's really
important for us to remember not
only are we giving support, but we
are often supported. 'Hito' - this is
something everybody can do. Do
something a little extra every day
for yourself, for others … with that,
you can create a community. In
order for you to be successful, you
need a community that believes
in you, and you believe in them."
— Ari Horie
