Friendship needs no words — it is solitude delivered from the anguish of loneliness. – Dag Hammarskjold
Forgiveness is the answer to the childs dream of a miracle by which what is broken is made whole again, what is soiled is made clean again. – Dag Hammarskjold
What makes loneliness an anguish is not that I have no one to share my burden, but this: I have only my own burden to bear. – Dag Hammarskjold
The heart may think it knows better: the senses know that absence blots people out. We really have no absent friends. The friend becomes a traitor by breaking, however unwillingly or sadly, out of our own zone: a hard judgment is passed on him, for all the pleas of the heart. – Elizabeth Bowen
