The origins of my career as a peace mediator can be found from my childhood years. I was born in the city of Viipuri, then still part of Finland.

What great philosophers do for us is not to hand out such an all-purpose system. It is to light up and clarify some special aspect of life, to supply conceptual tools which will do a certain necessary kind of work. Wide though that area of work may be, it is never the whole, and all ideas lose their proper power when they are used out of their appropriate context.

O God bless you, God forgive you!
