“‘Some people don’t want to be enlightened, at least not immediately. We are ordinary Tibetans. We drink; we eat; we feel passion; we love our wives and kids. If someone sort of messes around with them, even if they’re an army, you pick up your rifle. …[Tibetans have an] affinity to their place they live in. And they don’t want the Chinese there. And his Holiness cannot understand this.'” (New York Times Magazine)
