Democracies Are Expense-averse And They Think In

First, Recognize The Mistake. The Main Thing Is Taking Responsibility And Being Authentic.

If You Represent Everyone, In Some Ways You Represent No One. You're Un-owned.

There's Something Beautiful About Working In The One Place In The World Where The World Is Present, Like United Nations. Otherwise, One Would Have To Go To Each Of These Countries To Negotiate.

You Could Be In The United Nations Office All Night Every Night And Still Feel Like You Were Not Making A Sufficient Dent In The World's Problems. I Think The Key Is Prioritization. But Every Job Presents The Tyranny Of The Inbox, Of Allowing The Urgent To Crowd Out The Important. So We Have To Have Our Lodestars.

I Tell Young People: If You Make A Job Choice On The Basis Of Something Other Than Your Nose Or Your Gut, It's Unlikely To Work Out.... It's Perilous To Look Ahead And Be Like, "i'd Like To Be Ambassador." I Would Never Have Gone To Bosnia Or Spent Years Writing About Genocide. Do It On The Basis Of What You Can Learn.... It's Like Falling In Love. Your Whole Dating Life, You're Thinking, On The One Hand, On The Other Hand. Then You Meet The Right Guy, And You're Not In List-making Mode; You're Just With The Person You're Supposed To Be With. Jobs Are Like That Too.
