Ultimately, the source of our problems lies at the level of the individual. If people lack moral values and integrity, no system of laws and regulations will be adequate. So long as people give priority to material values, then injustice, corruption, inequity, intolerance, and greed— all the outward manifestations of neglect of inner values— will persist. —

Dalai Lama  (via cadburycrazed)

Also from the Lama: “If someone has a gun and is trying to kill you, it would be reasonable to shoot back with your own gun.  Not at the head, where a fatal wound might result. But at some other body part, such as a leg.”
