Human use, population, and technology have reached that certain stage where mother Earth no longer accepts our presence with silence.
Dalai Lama
If you want change, create the causes.
Dalai Lama
Although individuals may be highly intelligent, they are sometimes dogged by skepticism and doubts. They are clever, but they tend to be hesitant and skeptical and are never really able to settle down. These people are the least receptive.
Dalai Lama
Different people describe me in a different ways. Some describe me as the living Buddha. Nonsense. Some describe me as 'God-king.' Nonsense. Some consider me as a demon or a wolf in Buddhist robes. That also, I think nonsense.
Dalai Lama
Love is wanting others to be happy.
Dalai Lama
A generous heart and wholesome actions lead to greater peace.
Dalai Lama

Dalai Lama
In the final analysis, the hope of every person is simply peace of mind.
Dalai Lama
World peace must develop from inner peace. Peace is not just mere absence of violence. Peace is, I think, the manifestation of human compassion.
Dalai Lama
I believe that the basic nature of human beings is gentle and compassionate. It is therefore in our own interest to encourage that nature, to make it live within us, to leave room for it to develop. If on the contrary we use violence, it is as if we voluntarily obstruct the positive side of human nature and prevent its evolution.
Dalai Lama
Forget the failures. Keep the lessons.
Dalai Lama
The feeling of being happy or unhappy rarely depends on our absolute state, but on our perception of the situation, on our capacity to be satisfied with what we have.
Dalai Lama
No matter what part of the world we come from, we are all basically the same human beings. We all seek happiness and try to avoid suffering. We have the same basic human needs and concerns. All of us human beings want freedom and the right to determine our own destiny as individuals and as peoples. That is human nature.
Dalai Lama
The wiser course is to think of others when pursuing our own happiness.
Dalai Lama
If we can cultivate a concern for others, keeping in mind the oneness of humanity, we can build a more compassionate world.
Dalai Lama
The ultimate way to solve human problems is with nonviolence.
Dalai Lama
