This is a tiny book. But it had a big impact on me. I read it in a single sitting. I read it a time when I was pissed off with the entire world. This is my favourite quote from the book.

"To develop patience, you need someone who wilfully hurts you. Such people give us the real opportunity to practice tolerance. They test our inner strength in a way that even our guru cannot. Basically, patience protects us from being discouraged."

This is a small book full of quotes from the Dalai Lama and each quote is rather profound. This is a great book for picking a quote to contemplate on or to get a solid grounding in the mindset of Tibetan Buddhists. It is quickly read all at once but should be digested in small chunks to let the wisdom sink in.
