Her motto came from her mother
I do, because it’s from my mother again, “Do unto others as you would have them to unto you.” I think if you keep that in mind you will treat people with respect, with dignity, not judge them by how they look, not judge them by their education level, their socioeconomic standard, that’s not how you determine a person’s character. Her other favorite was, “Do not judge a book by it’s cover,” so I think although I have very strong Japanese roots, it in no way affected how I approach people from different backgrounds, because of this overall broader view of the world and other people. It was not limited to only the people in the community where I lived, it was not limited only to the Japanese American community, of which we were active. Eventually I was part of the Japan America Society, so I’m – I have kept in touch with my roots.
