An understanding is perhaps better than an alliance, which may stereotype arrangements which cannot be regarded as permanent in view of the changing circumstances from day to day.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Diversity means understanding.
I think understanding is the way to gain perspective - and therefore can live among those hideous realities. You can live with them.
If you don't acknowledge differences, it's as bad as stereotyping or reducing someone.
Alliances and international organizations should be understood as opportunities for leadership and a means to expand our influence, not as constraints on our power.
It's really important to share the idea that being different might feel like a problem at the time, but ultimately diversity is a strength.
Where misunderstanding serves others as an advantage, one is helpless to make oneself understood.
Understanding is a two-way street.
It is understanding that gives us an ability to have peace. When we understand the other fellow's viewpoint, and he understands ours, then we can sit down and work out our differences.
Our understanding is correlative to our perception.
Alliances and partnerships produce stability when they reflect realities and interests.
