Many People Would Say That A Tibetan

Yet [dalai Lama] Has Said Very Strongly That Basic Freedoms Of Thought And Speech Have To Be Respected In Tibet And They're Not At The Moment. Tolerance Doesn't Mean Accepting What's Unfair.

I'd Spent Thirty Years Visiting The Dalai Lama, And Twenty Years As A Journalist Going To Difficult Places, War Zones And Revolutions From North Korea To Haiti And Beirut To Sri Lanka, And The Question Came Up: What Does This Man Have To Offer To This World Which Seems So Torn Up And So Attached To Conflict?

Everyone Is A Wordsworth In Certain Moods, And Every Traveler Seeks Out Places That Every Traveler Has Missed.

The Dalai Lama Acknowledges That He's Met Westerners Who To Some Extent Are Clearly Easterners At Heart, And He Would Never Want Them Not To Become Buddhists Just Because They Happened To Be Born In California.

Quitting, For Me, Means Not Giving Up, But Moving On; Changing Direction Not Because Something Doesn’t Agree With You, But Because You Don’t Agree With Something. It’s Not A Complaint, In Other Words, But A Positive Choice, And Not A Stop In One’s Journey, But A Step In A Better Direction. Quitting-whether A Job Or A Habit-means Taking A Turn So As To Be Sure You’re Still Moving In The Direction Of Your Dreams.
