"...I would like to express my belief in the importance of earnestness, or 'honki' in Japanese, at all levels of endeavor. If you act earnestly, almost anything is possible. If you act earnestly, everything is interesting. If you act earnestly, someone will lend a hand. My hope is that you will take these words to heart when you challenge things. Osaka University will be side by side with you and earnestly support you."
