I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can.&rdquo;<br /> <br /> <br /> ― Dalai Lama XIV

&quot;I am astonished always at the stupidity of humanity but I shouldn&#039;t be, it&#039;s always with us. Which, after all, keeps giving me more and more to write about.&quot; Charles Bukowski
