“If you assume that there is no hope, you guarantee that there will be no hope.If you assume that there is an instinct for freedom, there are opportunities to change things, then there is a possibility that you can contribute to making a better world.”
Noam Chomsky
“Whether you believe in god or not does not matter so much, whether you believe in Buddha or not does not matter so much; as a Buddhist , whether you believe in reincarnation or not does not matter so much. You must lead a good life. And a good life does not mean just good food, good clothes, good shelter. These are not sufficient. A good motivation is what is needed; without dogmatism, without complicated philosophy; just understanding that others are human brothers & sisters & respecting their rights & human dignity.”
