Whether we will be able to achieve world peace or not, we have no choice but to work toward that goal. If we allow love and compassion to be dominated by anger, we will sacrifice the best part of our human intelligence—wisdom, our ability to decide between right and wrong. Along with selfishness, anger is one of the most serious problems facing the world today. ~Dalai Lama 

Doing something positive will help turn your mood around. When you smile, your body relaxes. When you experience human touch and interaction, it eases tension in your body. ~Simone Elkeles

How blissful it is, for one who has nothing. Attainers-of-wisdom are people with nothing. See him suffering, one who has something, a person bound in mind with people. ~Gautama Buddha

A relationship is lovely if you're happy, comfortable in it and you really like the person. I can think of nothing better. But there's nothing worse than having a relationship in which you feel no interest.

~Susannah York

The greatest gift you can make to your beloved one, is your presence. And that cannot be bought by money. When you love someone, you have to make yourself available… "Darling, I am there for you." That is the deepest love statement. If you don’t make yourself available, if you don’t make yourself present, how can you love? And that is why the practice of mindfulness is the practice of love.  ~Thich Nhat Hanh

Every man feels instinctively that all the beautiful sentiments in the world weigh less than a single lovely action.  ~Lowell

The beauty and mystery of this world only emerges through affection, attention, interest and compassion . . . open your eyes wide and actually see this world by attending to its colors, details and irony. ~Orhan Pamuk

I don't want to live in the kind of world where we don't look out for each other. Not just the people that are close to us, but anybody who needs a helping hand. I can't change the way anybody else thinks, or what they choose to do, but I can do my bit. ~Charles de Lint

Inner peace; wish to attain, 
Peace of mind, one shall gain. 
Spiritually and Mentally, 
Won't be achieved accidentally.

Conscious enlightenment, ultimate goal, 
Living life to the fullest; being whole. 
Knowledge shall help one understand, 
That inner peace is truly grand.

The beauty of it, is the lack of stress, 
Bliss and happiness, shall possess. 
One must know, oneself quite well, 
To attain a healthy, internal shell.
