Jan Eliasson quotes:

I feel that Orphei Drängar are among Sweden's foremost ambassadors. It's always a delight to hear the drängar, both abroad and at home.

Without passion, nothing happens; without compassion, the wrong things happen.

For all the civilians saved thanks to the presence of peacekeepers, there have been those who were lost - the United Nations personnel who sacrificed their lives for a noble cause. Even as we mourn our fallen colleagues, we are all uplifted by their unflinching commitment and are inspired to strive even harder for the collective cause so eloquently envisaged in the United Nations Charter: a world free from the scourge of war.

Our work must remain open and transparent so that we hear the voices of all

Without peace there is no development, and without development there is no peace

I don't have time. Come back after the election.
