SIMON LE BON (Rome)
"I think 20 years ago people thought that it would be OK to just dip into their pockets and that would be the end of it. That's like the Western mentality -- you know we just want to give somebody some money and forget about it.
"I think what this is about now is us actually taking responsibility and it's only going to work if it's the beginning of something that carries on."
BONO, lead singer of U2 (London)
"The rock stars and the hip hop stars can't change anything but our audience really can.
"We're not asking you to put your hand in your pockets but we are asking people to put their fists in the air."
DAVE MATTHEWS (Philadelphia)
