More From Dag Hammarskjold
- "Life only demands from you the strength that you possess. Only one feat is possible; not to run away."
- "The breaking wave and the muscle as it contracts obey the same law. Delicate line gathers the body’s total strength in a bold balance. Shall my soul meet so severe a curve, journeying on its way to form?"
- "Time always seems long to the child who is waiting – for Christmas, for next summer, for becoming a grownup: long also when he surrenders his whole soul to each moment of a happy day."
