Industry Reviews "Thich Nhat Hanh is a holy man, for he is humble and devout. He is a scholar of immense intellectual capacity. His ideas for peace, if applied, would build a monument to ecumenism, to world brotherhood, to humanity." Publisher's Catalog - Martin Luther King Jr.
"[Thich Nhat Hanh] shows us the connection between personal, inner peace and peace on earth." Publisher's Catalog - Dalai Lama
"Thich Nhat Hanh is more my brother than many who are nearer to me by race and nationality, because he and I see things the same way.... We are both monks, and we have lived the monastic life about the same number of years. We are both poets, both existentialists. I have far more in common with Nhat Hanh than I have with many Americans, and I do not hesitate to say it." Publisher's catalogue - Thomas Merton
"The message: Peace, love, and compassion are central to the teachings of Buddha and Christ, and people of both faiths should be tolerant of one another." Dalai Lama
