I would hesitate to give advice to the Dalai Lama and his people because they are suffering. The Dalai Lama suffered from exile and the people in Tibet suffer from oppression.

Elie Wiesel

I do not respect the Dalai Lama. He's a political power broker. The Dalai Lama is not honorable to me.

Ashin Wirathu

I felt we must separate political responsibility. The Dalai Lama should not carry that burden. So that is my selfish reason - to protect the old Dalai Lama tradition. It is safer without political involvement.

Dalai Lama

I meditate, and when I do, Prince Harry appears in my subconscious and meditates with me. It's a little strange but I don't think there's anything I can do about it. Sometimes he's not the only one; the other day it was me, Prince Harry, the Dalai Lama, Mr. Rogers, Coco the gorilla, and George Clooney. We were all floating above the earth looking down at the continents as they passed. George Clooney suggested I visit Providence, Rhode Island. The Dalai Lama sighed deeply and said he'd like to visit Tibet. Poor Dalai Lama.

Kristin Cashore

I give great thanks to God that he has created a Dalai Lama. Do you really think, as some have argued, that God will be saying: 'You know, that guy, the Dalai Lama, is not bad. What a pity he's not a Christian'? I don't think that is the case - because, you see, God is not a Christian.

Desmond Tutu

If some people have the belief or view that the Dalai Lama has some miracle power, that's totally nonsense. I am just one human being.

Dalai Lama

A friend told me of visiting the Dalai Lama in India and asking him for a succinct definition of compassion. She prefaced her question by describing how heart-stricken she'd felt when, earlier that day, she'd seen a man in the street beating a mangy stray dog with a stick. "Compassion," the Dalai Lama told her, "is when you feel as sorry for the man as you do for the dog."

Marc Ian Barasch

A lot of people believe that when you are Buddhist, you are the Dalai Lama. I'm certainly not.

Eric Ripert

You don't have to be the Dalai Lama to tell people that life's about change.

John Cleese

The Tibetan people will need to determine who the next reincarnation of the Dalai Lama is.

Dalai Lama

People have crossed the Himalayas in flip-flops seeking a blessing from the Dalai Lama.

Barbara Demick

I think Dalai Lama is always careful about stressing that people be led into the practice by somebody who knows what's going on.

Pico Iyer

We need a sense of the oneness of the 7 billion human beings alive today. When I meet people, I don't think about being different from them, about being Tibetan, Buddhist or even the Dalai Lama. I only think about being a human being. We all share the potential for positive and negative emotions, yet one of our special qualities is our human mind, our intelligence. If we use it well we'll be successful and happy.

Dalai Lama

I became the Dalai Lama not on a volunteer basis.

Dalai Lama

I've got a letter from the Dalai Lama at home.
