Smiling is very important. If we are not able to smile, then the world will not have peace. It is not by going out for a demonstration against nuclear missiles that we can bring about peace. It is with our capacity of smiling, breathing, and being peace that we can make peace.

  • -- Thich Nhat Hanh 一行禅师

微笑是非常重要的。如果我们不能微笑,那么世界就不会有和平。我们不能通过举行反对核导弹的示威来实现和平。只有我们微笑、呼吸和保持和平的能力,我们才能创造和平。
