“There's always a temptation, in the middle of a long struggle, to seek the quiet life, to escape the duties and problems of the world, and to hope the enemy grows weary of fanaticism and tired of murder. This would be a pleasant world, but it's not the world we live in. The enemy is never tired, never sated, never content with yesterday's brutality. This enemy considers every retreat of the civilized world as an invitation to greater violence.”

“Tired, tired with nothing, tired with everything, tired with the world’s weight he had never chosen to bear.”

“Self-pity is our worst enemy and if we yield to it, we can never do anything good in the world.”

“My mother [Eva] told me he used to go behind enemy lines, rub shoulders with the enemy forces and never get caught. … He was always saying how we have to live in harmony with all living things in this world.—Duncan Pegahmagabow”

“After long enough, everyone in the world will be you enemy.”

“The world is large when weary leagues two loving hearts divide
But the world is small when your enemy is loose on the other side.”

“Loneliness, her arch enemy, never seemed content.”

“It is love that will save our world and our civilization, love even for enemies.”

“The thing that irks me most is this shattered prison, after all. I’m tired, tired of being enclosed here. I’m wearying to escape into that glorious world, and to be always there; not seeing it dimly through tears, and yearning for it through the walls of an aching heart; but really with it, and in it.”

“I consider Xi Jinping the most dangerous enemy of open societies in the world.”
