Additional quotes by Dag Hammarskjöld

Friendship needs no words — it is solitude delivered from the anguish of loneliness.

To love life and men as God loves them — for the sake of
their infinite possibilities, to wait like Him, to judge like Him, without passing judgment, to obey the order when it is given and never look back.

For all that has been, thanks. For all that will be, yes.
