Conflict is neither good nor bad. Properly managed, it is absolutely vital.

Anounce of mediation is worth a pound of arbitration and a ton of litigation!

Whenconflict becomes a win-lose contest in our minds, we immediately try to win.

It is a strange desire, to seek power, and to loseliberty; or to seek power over others, and to lose power over a man's self.

The exercise of power is determined by thousands ofinteractions between the world of the powerful and that of the powerless, allthe more so because these worlds are never divided by a sharp line: everyonehas a small part of himself in both.

Hearme, my chiefs! I am tired. My heart is sick and sad. From where the sun nowstands, I will fight no more forever.

The strongest is never strong enough to be always, the master, unless he transforms strength into right, and obedience into duty.

A lie has no leg, but a scandel has wings

The lion and the calf shall lie down together, but the calf won't get much sleep.

Theharder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.

Man is born free, and everywhere is is in chains

The hardeststep is over the threshold.
