Carrie P. Snow
“The United Nations system is still the best instrument for making the world less fragile.”
Carlo Azeglio Ciampi
“Today I learned a very valuable lesson: Children are much more aware of what is going on in their heart and mind than you think. They see more than you show and hear more than you say. They can look in your eyes and tell you if you are sincere. They are both fragile, yet resilient at the same time. If you delve deep enough, you will hold the very essence of innocence in your hands.”
Stacy Maddox
“Gods are fragile things; they may be killed by a whiff of science or a dose of common sense.”
