If our tears do not lead us to act then we have lost the reason of our humanity, which is compassion.

Instead of harboring fear and suspicion we need to think of other people not as ‘them’ but ‘us’.

Compassion and love give meaning to our activities and makes them constructive.

The practice of love can be expressed in one sentence: 'Do not harm others.'

Anger is the ultimate troublemaker. I feel you can express a strong disapproval or dislike of an object without losing your temper.

The period of greatest gain in knowledge and experience is the most difficult period in one's life.

Whether one believes in a religion or not, and whether one believes in rebirth or not, there isn't anyone who doesn't appreciate kindness and compassion.
