"Ethics is more important ...."


“Ethics is more important than religion.  We do not arrive in this world as members of a particular religion.  But ethics is innate.”



“… in the 21st century we need a new ethic that transcends all religions.  Far more crucial than religion is our elementary human spirituality.  It is a predisposition towards love, kindness, and affection that we all have within us, whatever religion we belong to.  In my view, people can do without religion, but they cannot do without inner values, without ethics.”
The Dalai Lama
