Compassion is concern of others' well being.

The real test of compassion is not what we say in abstract discussions but how we conduct ourselves in daily life.

We must realize that it is best to focus on our oneness, to re emphasize what is the same about each of us rather than dwell on what is different.

We have global communication and yet confrontation is more common than dialogue.

You need self-confidence and determination: feeling depressed and losing hope will never really help to correct any situation.

Unlike physical progress, which is subject to natural restrictions, the qualities of the mind can be developed limitlessly.

No matter what part of the world we come from, we are all basically the same human beings. We all seek happiness and try to avoid suffering. We have the same basic human needs and concerns. All of us human beings want freedom and the right to determine our own destiny as individuals and as peoples. That is human nature.
