Take up the White Man's burden--
In patience to abide,
To veil the threat of terror
And check the show of pride;
By open speech and simple,
An hundred times made plain
To seek another's profit,
And work another's gain.
Rudyard Kipling 19th Century Imperialist
"You can't look for quick fixes. You have to realize that these things require extraordinary time and effort. That is just the reality. You can't lose patience and you can't lose hope," Rae said.
"The world cannot afford to have little hidden corners that are festering with violence and conflict that go unmonitored or unassessed."
Bob Rae 21st Century Imperialist
