Dalai Lama XIV

"Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them, humanity cannot survive."

"Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other."

"The more you are motivated by Love, The more Fearless & Free your action will be."

"We can live without religion and meditation, but we cannot survive without human affection."

"There is a saying in Tibetan, 'Tragedy should be utilized as a source of strength.'No matter what sort of difficulties, how painful experience is, if we lose our hope, that's our real disaster."

"This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness."
