Where we have been incorrect in what we have done, then I think we have an obligation to settle.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Where we're not wrong or where the cost of settling is so much that it is totally disproportionate to the harm or the error that we made, we're not going to settle.
A mistake is to commit a misunderstanding.
It's the perfect definition of a settlement. Both parties didn't get what they wanted.
I think most conflicts do end with negotiated settlements; some don't, but most do.
I think sometimes we're meant to do something but things aren't lined up correctly.
I'm not done with love, but I refuse to settle.
Any negotiation on the basis of land for peace is a fatal mistake.
So what do we do? Anything. Something. So long as we just don't sit there. If we screw it up, start over. Try something else. If we wait until we've satisfied all the uncertainties, it may be too late.
We made only one real mistake. And even then we were right.
The minute you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less than you settled for.
