This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; the being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap; the being a force of nature instead of a feverish selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. (Dalai Lama )

He who clings to life shall lose it -- but losing it in a right cause will gain it. (Dalai Lama )
Pep without purpose is piffle. (Dalai Lama )
Anyone can live heroically and successfully for one day. The man who achieves a high purpose makes that day the pattern for all the days of his life. (Dalai Lama )
