The Chinese government wants me to say that for many centuries Tibet has been part of China. Even if I make that statement, many people would just laugh. And my statement will not change past history. History is history.

I think really, China, Chinese, I think they really have a long history of civilization, rich culture.

Home is where you feel at home and are treated well.

I find hope in the darkest of days, and focus in the brightest. I do not judge the universe.

I totally disagree with the view that the Tibet struggle will die, and there will be no hope for Tibet, after the Dalai Lama passes away.
