"In order to satisfy one human stomach,..." - Quote by Dalai Lama

“Take into account that great love and great achievements involve great risk.”

“I think technology really increased human ability, but technology cannot produce compassion.”

“I think when tragic things happen it is on surface. It is like the ocean. One the surface a waves and sometimes the wave is very serious and strong. But it comes and goes, comes and goes, and underneath, the ocean always remains calm. Tibetans have a saying: "If bad news comes to you listen here" (points to the right ear) "and let it our here" (points to the left ear).”

“My body is not a tomb for animals.”

“Vegetarians claim to be immune from most diseases but they have been known to die from time to time.”

“Vegetarians are people who cannot hear tomatos screaming.”

“While we ourselves are the living graves of murdered animals, how can we expect any ideal living conditions on this earth?”

“Whenever I visit a market and see the chickens crowded together in tiny cages that give them no room to move around and spread their wings and the fish slowly drowning in the air, my heart goes out to them. People have to learn to think about animals in a different way, as sentient beings who love life and fear death. I urge everyone who can to adopt a compassionate vegetarian diet.”

“You can judge a society by the way it treats it's animals”
