QUOTES

If you want to serve the future, don't be afraid to belong to a minority.

If a problem has no solution, it may not be a problem, but a fact - not to be solved, but to be coped with over time.

The foes now are universal - poverty, famine, religious radicalization, desertification, drugs, proliferation of nuclear weapons, ecological devastation. They threaten all nations, just as science and information are the potential friends of all nations. Classical diplomacy and strategy were aimed at identifying enemies and confronting them. Now they have to identify dangers, global or local, and tackle them before they become disasters.
