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.

I have only my own burden to bear.

Our work for peace must begin within the private world of each of us. To build for man a world without fear, we must be without fear. To build a world of justice, we must be just.

Do not seek death. Death will find you.

Your cravings as a human animal do not become a prayer just because it is God whom you ask to attend to them.

Forgiving is forgetting, in spite of remembering.

The only kind of dignity which is genuine is that which is not diminished by the indifference of others.
