Compassion

• If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.

  — Dalai Lama

• If you don't love yourself, you cannot love others. You will not be able to love others. If you have no compassion for yourself then you are not able of developing compassion for others.

  — Dalai Lama

• For the individual, one truth or one religion is essential, [...] it is very important to make clear that all religious traditions have the same message: love, compassion and contentment.

  — Dalai Lama
