People think of animals as if they were vegetables, and that is not right. We have to change the way people think about animals. I encourage the Tibetan people and all people to move toward a vegetarian diet that doesn’t cause suffering.

More quotes by Dalai Lama
Compassion, along with love, is the face of altruism.
Dalai Lama
Share your knowledge. It is a way to achieve immortality.
Dalai Lama
Human potential is the same for all. If you have will power, then you can change anything.
Dalai Lama
If our tears do not lead us to act then we have lost the reason of our humanity, which is compassion.
Dalai Lama
A Compassionate state of mind brings inner peace, and therefore a healthier body.
Dalai Lama
Life does not wait: Whether we spend our lives meaningfully or not, the time will be used up moment by moment.
Dalai Lama
When we talk about global crisis, or a crisis of humanity, we cannot blame a few politicians, a few fanatics, or a few troublemakers. The whole of humanity has a responsibility because it is our business, human business. I call this a sense of universal responsibility. That is a crucial point.
Dalai Lama
Everything is interconnected. My interest is linked to everyone else's. Our survival and future are linked. Therefore the destruction of your so-called enemy is actually the destruction of your self.
Dalai Lama
The greatest antidote to insecurity & sense of fear is compassion. It brings one back to the basis of one's inner strength.
Dalai Lama
Passion is what gives sense to our life.
Dalai Lama
You need self-confidence and determination: feeling depressed and losing hope will never really help to correct any situation.
Dalai Lama
Compassion and love is the source of external and internal peace and is also the root of racial survival.
Dalai Lama
You cant help someone just by making a wish to do so, you have to take action.
Dalai Lama

Dalai Lama
The female biologically [has] more potential to show affection and compassion.
Dalai Lama
In order to develop the willpower it takes to sacrifice, you must first realize that spending all your time and energy pursuing material comforts means you will eventually suffer. It's all about positive and negative consequences. It's very important to be aware that there are long-term consequences [for every action].
Dalai Lama
The more we feel concern for others and seek their well-being, the more friends we will have and the more welcome we will feel.
Dalai Lama
Our attitude towards suffering becomes very important because it can affect how we cope with suffering when it arises.
Dalai Lama
As far as social-economic theory is concerned, I am still a Marxist
Dalai Lama
I believe compassion to be one of the few things we can practice that will bring immediate and long-term happiness to our lives. I'm not talking about the short-term gratification of pleasures like sex, drugs or gambling (though I'm not knocking them), but something that will bring true and lasting happiness. The kind that sticks.
Dalai Lama
