Quotes by Dag Hammarskjöld

Perhaps a great love is never returned. Had it been given warmth and shelter by its counterpart in the Other, perhaps it would have been hindered from ever growing to maturity.
It "gives" us nothing.
But in its world of loneliness it leads us up to the summits with wide vistas - of great insights.

Life only demands from you the strength you possess. Only one feat is possible--not to have run away.
