Without forgiveness there can be no future for a relationship between individuals or within and between nations.

Dear Child of God, I am sorry to say that suffering is not optional.

Without forgiveness, there is no future. Forgiveness is not nebulous, impractical and idealistic. It's thoroughly realistic. It's real political in the long run.

Trust is one of the fundamentals of human existence. We need to be able to trust one another. A man who can no longer trust anyone will become sick.

There is no justice in killing in the name of justice.

One of the things that people sense is that you are not doing this for self-glorification, you are doing it for the sake of others. The Dalai Lama has been in exile for so many years, yet the Chinese are running scared of him.

I have absolutely no objection to performance and success as long as they don't become false idols and threaten to rule our lives.
