There was no way to laugh anymore, to love, to care, and there was a sense of guilt in having survived when others had been killed. I turned into a worse workaholic than I had already been by trying to work myself into the ground. Romeo Dallaire anymorebadlycare share on social
Now, in this U.N. stuff, the commander, although he has troops, they don't really belong to him.
