Given afair wind, we will negotiate our way into the Common Market, head held high,not crawling in. Negotiations? Yes. Unconditional acceptance of whateverterms are offered us? No.
Duringa negotiation, it would be wise not to take anything personally. If you leavepersonalities out of it, you will be able to see opportunities moreobjectively.
I’mwilling for any solution religious, political. I’m not going to keepoffering to negotiate so much because they turn us down each time. Itindicates a weakness on our part.

Conflictis the gadfly of thought. It stirs us to observation and memory. Itinstigates to invention. It shocks us out of sheeplikepassivity, and sets us at noting and contriving.
