In order to create a happy century, a peaceful century we must promote the concept of dialogue.

Cultivating contentment is crucial to maintaining peaceful coexistence.

Through developing an attitude of responsibility toward others, we can begin to create the kinder, more compassionate world we all dream of.

When we are committed to honesty, we help reduce the level of misunderstanding, doubt, and fear throughout society.

To the extent that suffering awakens our empathy and causes us to connect with others, it can serve as the basis of compassion and love.

Noticing a single shortcoming in ourselves is far more useful than seeing a thousand in someone else. When it is our own: we can correct it.

One of the most effective ways to overcome anxiety is to try to shift the focus of attention away from self and toward others.

Peace does not come through prayer, we human beings must create peace.

Giving is recognized as a virtue in every major religion and in every civilized society, and it clearly benefits both giver and receiver.

We find that patience is the best means we have of defending ourselves internally from anger's destructive effects.

It is worth reminding ourselves that the greatest joy and satisfaction in life come from actions we undertake out of concern for others.

The more we truly desire to benefit others, the more strength and confidence we develop and the deeper the peace and happiness we experience

Anger, jealousy, impatience, and hatred are the real troublemakers, with them problems cannot be solved.

Through love, kindness and compassion we establish understanding between ourselves and others; this is how we forge unity and harmony.

Loving thoughts and actions are clearly beneficial for our physical and mental health.

Compassion and love are not a luxury. As the source both of inner and external peace, they are fundamental to the survival of our species.

The more we expand our focus to include others' interests alongside our own, the more securely we build the foundations of our own happiness

If you have strong compassion, strong respect for others, then forgiveness is much easier.

The real source of inner joy is to remain truthful and honest.
