"If others are happy, we will be..." - Quote by Dalai Lama

“Who has magnificent self-confidenceAnd fears nothing that exists?The man who has attained to truthAnd lives free of error.”

“Yet even the rich have their own kind of suffering, anxiety, doubt, and fear. So in many cases, wealthy people aren't happy! And once those with material wealth encounter small difficulties, their amount of mental suffering is sometimes bigger than it is for those who have faced such difficulties every day.”

“A tree with strong roots can withstand the most violent storm, but the tree can't grow roots just as the storm appears on the horizon.”

“Appearance is something absolute, but reality is not that way - everything is interdependent, not absolute.”

“The reality today is that we are all interdependent and have to co-exist on this small planet. Therefore, the only sensible and intelligent way of resolving differences and clashes of interests, whether between individuals or nations, is through dialogue.”

“Without the human community one single human being cannot survive.”

“If you are not having fun you are doing something wrong.”

“We must become free. We are free; the work is to know it. We must give up all slavery, all bondage of whatever kind. We must not only give up our bondage to earth and everything and everybody on earth, but also to all ideas of heaven and happiness.”

“Comparison is the thief of all joy.”
