More quotes by Dag Hammarskjold
The 'great' commitment is so much easier than the ordinary everyday one.
Dag Hammarskjold
Isn't the fulfillment of our duty towards our neighbor an expression of deepest desire?
Dag Hammarskjold
Each day the first day: Each day a life.
Dag Hammarskjold
The life of simplicity is simple, but it opens to us a book in which we never get beyond the first syllable.
Dag Hammarskjold
Life yields only to the conqueror. Never accept what can be gained by giving in. You will be living off stolen goods, and your muscles will atrophy.
Dag Hammarskjold
He is one of those who has had the wilderness for a pillow, and called a star his brother. Alone. But loneliness can be a communion.
Dag Hammarskjold
It is not we who seek the Way, but the Way which seeks us. That is why you are faithful to it, even while you stand waiting, so long as you are prepared, and act the moment you are confronted by its demands.
Dag Hammarskjold
It was when Lucifer first congratulated himself upon his angelic behavior that he became the tool of evil.
Dag Hammarskjold
Friendship needs no words.
Dag Hammarskjold
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.
Dag Hammarskjold
Never, for the sake of peace and quiet, deny your own experience or convictions.
Dag Hammarskjold
You take the pen, and the lines dance. You take the flute and the notes shimmer. You take the brush, and the colors sing. So all things have meaning and beauty in that space beyond time where you are. How, then, can I hold back anything from you?
Dag Hammarskjold
We are not permitted to choose the frame of our destiny. But what we put into it is ours.
Dag Hammarskjold
We all have within us a center of stillness surrounded by silence.
Dag Hammarskjold
Unless there is a spiritual renaissance, the world will know no peace.
Dag Hammarskjold
You dare your Yes - and experience a meaning...You repeat your Yes - and all things acquire a meaning...When everything has a meaning, how can you live anything but a YES.
Dag Hammarskjold
Pray that your loneliness may spur you into finding something to live for, great enough to die for.
Dag Hammarskjold
The big, shoe-thumping fellow continues as a dark thunderhead to threaten all unrepentant non-Communists with hail and thunder.
Dag Hammarskjold
When the morning's freshness has been replaced by the weariness of midday, when the leg muscles give under the strain, the climb seems endless, and suddenly nothing will go quite as you wish it is then that you must not hesitate.
Dag Hammarskjold
On the bookshelf of life, God is a useful work of reference, always at hand but seldom consulted.
Dag Hammarskjold
