"There is a basic human level where distinctions between people--gender, race, religion, culture, and language--break down. At this fundamental level, we are all the same; each one of us aspires to happiness and does not wish to suffer...of course, there may be differences in our cultural background, way of life, our faith or color, but we are all human beings, consisting of a human body, human mind, and emotions. Wherever I meet people, I have the feeling that I am encountering another human being, just like myself...if we can relate to others on that basic leve and leave the differences aside, I think we can easily communicate, exchange ideas, and share experiences."--The 14th Dalai Lama, in the book
