[Dalai Lama:] All things depend on other things. Nothing exists
separately. I believe, by the way, that on this point
contemporary science is moving along the same road as we are.
We say this: on account of the influences they receive,
things appear, exist, and disappear.
Unceasingly.
But they never exist by themselves.
