• And what of my extended family-birds, beasts, and reptiles? They too have drowned. Every single thing I value in life has been destroyed. And I am allowed no explanation? I am to suffer hell without any account from heaven? In that case, what is the purpose of reason, Richard Parker? Is it no more than to shine at practicalities-the getting of food, clothing and shelter? Why can't reason give greater answers? Why can we throw a question further than we can pull in an answer? Why such a vast net if there's so little fish to catch? (pg. 98)

• Sometimes I wonder if the semi-conscious agenda of the media is to get between people and their souls. It is the the soul with its myriad tiny nerve endings that notices the neglected pathos, poignancy and practicality that lies at the heart of life. It's as if the media are somehow irritated and envious that anonymous people should have the quiet brilliance of their rich and sustainable inner lives.

• Cuando estamos enfadados estamos ciegos a la realidad. Puede que la ira nos aporte un chute temporal de energía, pero esa energía es ciega y bloquea la parte de nuestro cerebro que distingue el bien del mal. Para afrontar nuestros problemas, tenemos que ser prácticos y realistas. Si queremos ser realistas, tenemos que utilizar adecuadamente nuestra inteligencia humana, lo que significa que necesitamos una mente tranquila.

  Dalai Lama
