Quote of the Week

Guess what, it's Thursday! And guess what else, it's Quote of the Week day. Thursdays I will post quotes from the week that I've either said, heard or read. This week's quote is from the Dalai Lama because not only is he the reason I finally bit the bullet and joined Twitter, (see my tweets at mel_b_toast) he's a pretty smart guy.

This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness... We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves. ~Dalai Lama

Or as Lauryn Hill succinctly put it "How you gonna win, if you ain't right within?"
