Markings by Hammarskjold, Dag. mass_market edition. ISBN: 9780345327413.

A book of meditations. A revealing spiritual self-portrait by one of the great peacmakers of our times. Maturity: Among other things, the unclouded happiness of the child at play who takes it for granted that he is at one with his playmates. Never, "for the sake of peace and quiet," deny your own experience or convictions. The only kind of dignity which is genuine is that which is not diminished by the indifference of others. Pray that your loneliness may spur you into finding something to live for, great enough to die for. Never measure the height of a mountain until you have reached the top. Then you will see how low it was.
