“I didn't have a blueprint from my childhood that I could call on, which is an enormous deficit when you're trying to put together a family life.

“When we come to the table, we shouldn't negotiate right away. We should spend time walking together, eating together, making acquaintance, telling each other about our own suffering, without blame or condemnation. It takes maybe one, two, three weeks to do that. And if communication and understanding are possible, negotiation will be easier. So if I am to organize a peace negotiation, I will organize it in that way.” IfsWayShouldTwoTogetherSufferingThreeUnderstandingWeekCommunicationWalkingEasierEatingTablesBlameOrganizeEnd TimesNegotiationAcquaintanceSpend TimeCondemnationEating TogetherWalking Together Author:Nhat Hanh
“When we come together and appreciate each other, that's always a positive thing; a step in the right direction. That is what the NAACP Image Awards do. If we can just come together and love each other, that's important.

But the real reality is we haven't loved and appreciated our own accomplishments.” PeopleImportantRealEnoughRealityTogetherAppreciateBlameAccomplishmentAppreciated Author:Ernie Hudson
“Words are humanity's greatest natural resource, but most of us have trouble figuring out how to put them together. Words aren't cheap. They are very precious. They are like water, which gives life and growth and refreshment, but because it has always been abundant, we treat it cheaply. We waste it; we pollute it, and doctor it. Later we blame the quality of the water because we have misused it.” GivingTogetherHumanityGrowthWaterNaturalQualityTroubleWasteResourcesDoctorsTreatsBlameNatural ResourcesMisusedRefreshments Author:Katherine Paterson

“No one was to blame for what happened, but that does not make it any less difficult to accept. It was all a matter of missed connections, bad timing, blundering in the dark. We were always in the right place at the wrong time, the wrong place at the right time, always just missing each other, always just a few inches from figuring the whole thing out.

A typhoon kills a few hundred people, does a few billion in damage, and what do we do?” Erskine interlocked his fingers. “We come together. We put the pieces back.
