From the Dalai Lama
When others, out of jealousy
Treat me wrongly with abuse, slander, and scorn,
May I take upon myself the defeat
And offer to others the victory.

And offer to others the victory.
I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality.
-Martin Luther King, Jr
Lose yourself
Escape from the black cloud that surrounds you
The you will see your own light,
as radiant as the full moon.
-Rumi
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
It must be said that genuine compassion is not like pity or a feeling that others are somehow lower than you. Rather, with genuine compassion you view others as more important than yourself.
