Dalai LamaNever give up. No matter what is happening, no matter what is going on around you, never give up.
Dalai LamaEvery single being, even those who are hostile to us, is just as afraid of suffering as we are, and seeks happiness in the same way we do. Every person has the same right as we do to be happy and not to suffer. So let's take care of others wholeheartedly, of both our friends and our enemies. This is the basis for true compassion.
