“You are not only a credit to the world of music, but to humanity itself.”

Bono received a humanitarian award from The Simon Wiesenthal Center on Monday, Nov 18. Besides Dr. Ira Lipman, Bono also received high praise from others such as Bill Clinton (“(You) have been one of the most inspiring examples of using celebrity for the common good that
I have ever witnessed”) and Prof. Jeffrey Sachs (“Bono has found ways to touch the hearts of millions…in all walks of life, in all stages of life around the world”). (thanks to youtwo.net)
