 "Maybe humility is the eye of the needle that we all have to pass through" jumped out at me as well. That's got to be a U2 lyric right there.

That animation was spot on as well.

Amazing Video/interview I have lost far to many friends to cancer and this was an amazing description by one of the finest word smiths of our time.

Imagine how different a father Bono is than his father. 

Celebrate Bono as a Dad by voting in the Big Daddy Awards.

Agreed. My fave part too. Thanks for sharing this vid.

I'm hoping it'd turn into a song lyric (I'm sure it's in Bono's memory vault/ lyric notebook somewhere), but it might not fit the band/Bono's public persona. But screw that. Such a beautiful line!
