We can make this a more peaceful century if we cherish non-violence and concern for othersโ well-being. It is possible. If the individual is happier, his or her family is happier; if families are happy, neighborhoods and nations will be happy. By transforming ourselves we can change our human way of life and make this a century of compassion.
Dalai LamaYou must not hate those who do wrong or harmful things; but with compassion, you must do what you can to stop them โ for they are harming themselves, as well as those who suffer from their actions.
Dalai LamaWhen you talk you are only repeating something you already know. But, if you listen you may learn something new.
Dalai LamaReal love is not based on attachment, but on altruism. In this case, your compassion will remain as a humane response to suffering as long as beings continue to suffer.
Dalai Lama
