Peacekeeping Is Not A Job For Soldiers,

Never Measure The Height Of A Mountain Until You Have Reached The Top. Then You Will See How Low It Was.

For The Sacrificed, In The Hour Of Sacrifice, Only One Thing Counts: Faith-alone Among Enemies And Skeptics. Faith, In Spite Of The Humiliation Which Is Both The Necessary Precondition And The Consequence Of Faith, Faith Without Any Hope Of Compensation Other Than He Can Find In A Faith Which Reality Seems So Thoroughly To Refute.

The Pursuit Of Peace And Progress Cannot End In A Few Years In Either Victory Or Defeat. The Pursuit Of Peace And Progress, With Its Trials And Its Errors, Its Successes And Its Setbacks, Can Never Be Relaxed And Never Abandoned.

It Is More Important To Understand The Ground Of Your Own Behavior Than To Understand The Motives Of Another.

To Preserve The Silence Within--amid All The Noise. To Remain Open And Quiet, A Moist Humus In The Fertile Darkness Where The Rain Falls And The Grain Ripens--no Matter How Many Tramp Across The Parade Ground In Whirling Dust Under An Arid Sky.
