human action, whether it has become positive or
negative, must depend on motivation."
- The Dalai
Lama
"Every
noble work is bound to face problems and obstacles.
It is important to check your goal and motivation
thoroughly. One should be very truthful, honest,
and reasonable. One's actions should be good for
others, and for oneself as well. Once a positive
goal is chosen, you should decide to pursue it
all the way to the end. Even if it is not realized,
at least there will be no regret."
- The Dalai
Lama
To

feel more motivated and happy because there are
people interested in our problem, people that

Many
folks have asked me, ‘How do you do it and why
have you sacrificed so much to do this work?
The answer comes easy. I look at my daughter
and find hope in that she is living in a world
of struggle, of social and political movement.
She and the other five-year-olds will grow up
in a more just, more equitable world. She motivates
me.
-- Lateefah
