Dalai Lama

I describe myself as a simple Buddhist monk. No more, no less.

We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves.

If you can, help others; if you cannot do that, at least do not harm them.

Spiritual practice should not be confused with grim duty. It is the laughter of the Dalai Lama and the wonder born with every child.

Although I write to entertain, and try to keep my work free of didacticism, I do have a rather passionate belief in our need to be connected to - and to learn from - history.
