Paul Haggis: Just before, during the intermission, intermission, actually the commercial break. My sister walked up to me and gave me the ring, my mom's ring. Saying she was here with me. And she really messed me up, Jo, thanks a lot. Bertolt Brecht said that art is not a mirror, but it is a hammer. In which -- not a mirror to hold up to society, but a hammer in which to shape it. So I guess this is ours. Bobby and I have had the good fortune to speak to a lot of -- I'm so nervous. To win a few of these awards recently. So we've thanked everybody we want to thank. So tonight, I just want to thank those people who take big risks in their daily lives, when there aren't cameras rolling. When there aren't people there to applaud. And the people out there who stand up for peace, and justice, and against intolerance. So I dedicate this to them. Thank you very much. For more on the Oscars visit http://www.oscars.org
