"Basically, from the viewpoint of real human..." - Quote by Dalai Lama

“Everyone wants to be happy; happiness is a right. And while on a secondary level differences exist of nationality, faith, family background, social status and so on, more important is that on a human level we are the same. None of us wants to face problems, and yet we create them by stressing our differences. If we see each other just as fellow human beings, there'll be no basis for fighting or conflict between us.”

“You have to start giving first and expect absolutely nothing.”

“Some people consider the practice of love and compassion is only related to religious practice and if they are not interested in religion they neglect these inner values. But love and compassion are qualities that human beings require just to live together.”

“Rifles, muskets, long-bows and hand-grenades are inherently democratic weapons. A complex weapon makes the strong stronger, while a simple weapon - so long as there is no answer to it - gives claws to the weak.”

“Revolution is based on land. Land is the basis of all independence. Land is the basis of freedom, justice, and equality.”

“Until blacks and whites see each other as brother and sister, we will not have parity. It's very clear.”

“If a man has his throat cut in Paris, it's a murder. If 50,000 people are murdered in the east, it is a question.”

“I know little about nature and hardly anything about men.”

“The sail, the play of its pulse so like our own lives: so thin and yet so full of life, so noiseless when it labors hardest, so noisy and impatient when least effective.”
