"Responsibility does not only lie with the leaders of our countries
or with those who have been appointed
or elected to do a particular job.
It lies with each of us individually.
Peace, for example, starts within each one of us.
When we have inner peace, we can be at peace with those around us.
When our community is in a state of peace,
it can share that peace with neighboring communities, and so on.
When we feel love and kindness towards others,
it not only makes others feel loved and cared for,
but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace."
Dalai Lama
