" "

Att aldrig låta framgången dölja sin tomhet, insatsen sin intighet, arbetslivet sin ödslighet, och så att bevara sporren att nå vidare – den smärta i själen som driver oss själva. Se dig inte om. Och dröm ej om framtiden: den skall ej återskänka dig det förgångna eller tillfredsställa andra lyckodrömmar. Din plikt och din belöning – ditt öde – är HÄR och NU.

The UN is not just a product of do-gooders. It is harshly real. The day will come when men will see the UN and what it means clearly. Everything will be all right — you know when? When people, just people, stop thinking of the United Nations as a weird Picasso abstraction, and see it as a drawing they made themselves.
