Why cant people say, "I know this is wrong, but I'm doing it anyway". It's practically my mantra to get through the day committing sins of omission. The scary people wont even admit they know its wrong, and they're just doing what they do BECAUSE. No reason. One person, one decision. ...

"Some person is responsible. Always. If H-bombs exist - and they do - some person controls them. In terms of morals there is no such thing as 'state'. Just men. Individuals. Each responsible for his own acts." --- Robert Heinlein

"If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion." Dalai Lama

This message is just a bit too touchy-feely watered-down cliché for me. As Greta Christina has just pointed out (starting at 35:35), anger is essential to any social justice movement. To ignore that anger, and not channel it is to give power to those whom you are angry against. The Dalai Lama ignores the fact that people with discipline can feel anger, and still determine right from wrong.

The Dalai Lama is possibly the most rational religious leader on the planet. Beautiful message.

Does it really matter who said it? Hitler could have said it, and it would still be a good idea. The content makes sense, the sender is not important.

Thanks direpickle,
This quote was passed to me - it didn't even occur to me to fact check its authenticity.
I did find it strange MLKJr. had a quote for everything though - I guess he doesn't always, after -all.

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that." - Martin Luther King, Jr.

Also, just for everyone's future reference, we can attribute the wrong part of that quote to the right person now.
"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy." -- Jessica Dovey
Another real quote:
"Forgiveness doesn't mean forget what happened. … If something is serious and it is necessary to take counter-measures, you have to take counter-measures." -- The 14th Dalai Lama
Also, even when you get your quotations correct, they are bad logic.

This is why lamas are used to guard sheep from coyotes.

did he make himself one with everything

naaa..he would only get violent if it were a woman reporter.

>> ^Payback:

He's lucky that he wasn't interviewing Mike Tyson.
"So, Mike Tyson walks in to a pizza shop..."
"I HATE PIZZA!!!!" BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM

How dare you insert me -- the Dalai Lama -- into a hypothetical situation for your amusement! Here, have an instant karma kick in the ass.

I'd rather watch the Dalai Lama meet Dolly Parton. HONK HONK!

Your video, The Dalai Lama walks into a pizza shop..., has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

I wish I could promote this.

Telling the Lama a joke about himself. I can't hardly stand it, that is SO COOL.

If you know english, you understand the pun perfectly. I guess the Dalai Lama's level of english isn't that good.
