According to Buddhist psychology most of our troubles stem from attachment to things that we mistakenly see as permanent.

It's unrealistic to think that the future of humanity can be achieved only on the basis of prayer; what we need is to take action.

Choose to be optimistic, it feels better.

Most of our troubles are due to our passionate desire for and attachment to things that we misapprehend as enduring entities.

I believe that to meet the challenge of our times, human beings will have to develop a greater sense of universal responsibility. We must all learn to work not just for our own self, family, or nation but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace, the equitable use of natural resources, and through concern for future generations, the proper care of the environment.

I find hope in the darkest of days, and focus in the brightest. I do not judge the universe.

Man surprised me most about humanity.Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health.And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.
