"What acts as a far more effective..." - Quote by Dalai Lama

“We have always been a nation different from the Chinese. Long ago we fought wars with them.”

“We have to adopt a wider perspective, and always find common things between the people of north, east, south, and west. Conflict comes from the basis of differencs.”

“Self-discipline is crucial to a simpler, more contented life.”

“A mind committed to compassion is like an overflowing reservoir - a constant source of energy, determination, and kindness.”

“A random act of kindness, no matter how small, can make a tremendous impact on someone else's life.”

“Nature ordains that a man should wish the good of every man, whoever he may be, for this very reason that he is a man.”

“You ask whether I have ever been in love: fool as I am, I am not such a fool as that. But if one is only to talk from first-hand experience, conversation would be a very poor business. But though I have no personal experience of the things they call love, I have what is better - the experience of Sappho, of Euripides, of Catallus, of Shakespeare, of Spenser, of Austen, of Bronte, of anyone else I have read.”

“When you are behaving as if you loved someone, you will presently come to love him. If you injure someone you dislike, you will find yourself disliking him more. If you do him a good turn, you will find yourself disliking him less.”

“Some people are hurting so bad you have to do more than preach a message to them. You have to BE a message to them.”
