Quote by Dag Hammarskjold
Time always seems long to the child who is waiting - for Christmas

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. – Dag Hammarskjold

Other quotes by Dag Hammarskjold

I dont know Who — or what — put the question, I dont know when it was put. I dont even remember answering. But at some moment I did answer Yes to Someone –or Something –and from that hour I was certain that existence is meaningful and that, therefore, my life, in self-surrender, had a goal. – Dag Hammarskjold
