Quote by Jasmine Warga

“Guidance counselors always love to say, 'Just think positively,' but that's impossible when you have this thing inside of you, strangling every ounce of happiness you can muster. My body is an efficient happy-though-killing machine.”

“Compassion has nothing to do with achievement at all. It is spacious and very generous. When a person develops real compassion, he is uncertain whether he is being generous to others or to himself because compassion is environmental generosity, without direction, without 'for me' and without 'for them.' It is filled with joy, spontaneously existing joy, and constant joy in the sense of trust, in the sense that joy contains tremendous wealth, richness.”

“Compassion can be lost as easily as species, and when it goes, then plants and animals are sure to follow. It is not enough simply to bequeath biodiversity to future generations without also passing on a sense of its significance and, perhaps hardest of all, a genuine love of life on Earth.”
