"You cannot play with the animal in you……" — Dag Hammarskjold

"You cannot play with the animal in you without becoming wholly animal, play with falsehood without forfeiting your right to truth, play with cruelty without losing your sensitivity of mind. He who wants to keep his garden tidy does not reserve a plot for weeds"

— Dag Hammarskjold
