As for "education", take a long, hard look at where it get's a lot of people.

This is a sad comment. And I know a lot of people believe just that.

I can see where they get it. Many examples of wasted degrees and smart people doing dumb stuff.

I, of course, think just the opposite. A good education and/or training solves way more problems than it creates.

People fear the unknown. Education helps to remove that unknown factor.

We got a long ways to go, before there is enough education available to affect some corners of the globe. It, however, is the answer.

Whose f'n better than the Dalai Lama? If you don't think so, ask Bill Murray. Dalai gave him total consciousness in Caddyshack...

Gunga galunga… , gunga-gungalunga.

One of my favorite quotes of all time:

The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, he said:

“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.”

I love the comment about the fixation on quantity at the expense of quality.
