3. Damn. We lost a good man, a great diplomat, and a man of peace.
May his memory be eternal.

6. I am not one to believe in eternal rest. Why would the good Lord take away struggle?
Struggle is what makes us grow. Holbrooke is probably negotiating something right now.

I believe the issue in the next plane is forgivness.
