10. When asked what surprised him about humanity the most, the Dalai Lama
replied:
“Man. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then
he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the
future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in
the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies
having never really lived.
