The Dalai Lama quote
All posts tagged The Dalai Lama quote
NEVER GIVE UP:
Never give up;
No matter what is going on, Never give up.
Develop the heart;
Too much energy in your country Is spent developing the mind, Instead of the heart.
Develop the heart.
Be compassionate;
Not just with your friends, But with everyone.
Be compassionate.
Work for peace;
In your heart, And in the world.
Work for peace.
And I say again, Never give up.
No matter what is going on around you, Never give up.

“It’s funny: I always imagined when I was a kid that adults had some kind of inner toolbox full of shiny tools: the saw of discernment, the hammer of wisdom, the sandpaper of patience. But then when I grew up I found that life handed you these rusty bent old tools – friendships, prayer, conscience, honesty – and said ‘do the best you can with these, they will have to do’. And mostly, against all odds, they do.”
