Shhh.

The world problem is the individual problem; if the individual is at peace, has happiness, has great tolerance, and an intense desire to help, then the world problem as such ceases to exist. You consider the world problem before you consider your own problem. Before you have established peace and understanding in your own hearts and in your own minds, you desire to establish peace and tranquility in the minds of others, in your nations and in your states; whereas peace and understanding will only come when there is understanding, certainty and strength in yourselves.

-The Pool of Wisdom, by J. Krishnamurti
