Dalai LamaKindness and a good heart are the foundation for success in this life, progress on the spiritual path, and the fulfillment of our aspirations. Our need for them is not limited to any specific time, place, society, or culture.

Dalai LamaBecause we all share an identical need for love, it is possible to feel that anybody we meet, in whatever circumstances, is a brother or sister.
