The key to human happiness lies within our own state of mind, and so too do the primary obstacles to that happiness.
Dalai LamaInstead of wondering WHY this is happening to you, consider why this is happening to YOU.
Dalai LamaThe purpose of our life needs to be positive. We weren't born with the purpose of causing trouble, harming others. For our life to be of value, I think we must develop basic good human qualities - warmth, kindness, compassion. Then our life becomes meaningful and more peaceful - happier.
Dalai LamaChairman Mao once said that political power comes from the barrel of a gun. He was only partly right: power that comes from the barrel of a gun can be effective only for a short time. In the end, peoples love for truth, justice, freedom, and democracy will triumph. No matter what governments do, the human spirit will always prevail.
