If poets fail to move us with their words: they have failed in their quest to cheer us up, or to alleviate our pain, even to console us with their empathy.

Empathy gives what is needed. Ambition takes what is wanted.
|
Ears attuned, hearts engaged—listening unlocks the doors to empathy, compassion, and profound connections. -Aloo Denish Obiero
|
Peace, so much less costly than war -- yet we allow fear and lack of empathy to impoverish spirit.
|
The poet, the writer ... is sharing their thoughts and feelings with the universe on another level. Revealing their greatest vulnerabilities as some sort of cathartic alm towards understanding and empathy, or there for the grace of God go I. Perhaps a confessional place where they commune with themselves and readers will acknowledge that similar darkness and light within themselves and not feel so different, or alone. This is the way of all writing, whether it is about joy, or despair.
|
Empathy will open the door and apathy will close it.
|
Empathy comes when you share the struggles of another. Can't love without ever being loved, can't wound without ever being wounded. -QtR
|
When you weaponize empathy you lose trust.
|
Apathy can turn syrup into vinegar.
|
There is nothing worse than apathy.
|
The more we analyze our reactions and better options, wiser we become. And transformation is beautiful indeed... The situations which had always entangled become unworthy, people who had always hogged on the patience appear confused ranting out silently that what they need is empathy and counseling. And the contended smile that shines on face becomes the most treasured property

Before you judge
a man for his sins
be sure to trudge
many moons in his moccasins.
(Native American proverb, translation by Michael R. Burch, keywords/tags: judgement, anti-bullying, tolerance, understanding, sympathy, words of wisdom)

In this ordinary swoon
as I pass from life to death,
I feel no heat from the cold, pale moon;
I feel no sympathy for breath.
Who I am and why I came,
I do not know; nor does it matter.
The end of every man’s the same
and every god’s as mad as a hatter.
I do not fear the letting go;
I only fear the clinging on
to hope when there’s no hope, although
I lift my face to the blazing sun
and feel the greater intensity
of the wilder inferno within me.

Why do people rarely share their pain?
The victims feel they will be further victimized by their audience's lack of empathy. The unsure nature of fear... creates a wall of stones.
|
Zalim ka khud mazloom ban kar kisi ka nuqsan karvanay kay liye apnay haq me sympathy campaign chalvana intahai namunasib harkat hai.
|
Feel free to make opinions and judgements about me but please don’t bring ‘em to me if you don’t have filters of education, rational and empathy to pass them through
|
"No empathy? It's ok, you'll be given an opportunity to understand what you don't understand at one point in life." TiNa Art
|
Strive to amass a wealth of empathy that allows one to become independently generous with your love.
|
When men get hurt they get told to man up and grow a pair. When women get hurt they get sympathy and cuddles. Child birth is natures way of leveling things out.
|
There is a lack of empathy in our nation and the third and second world. Empathy is the deficit that caused war among our species.
|
If I had a simulation computer program with AI capable of reproducing our universe in all detail, then I would make a program to simulate Earth societies on the premise of empathy. If society becomes successfully adequate at empathy there would be no war, no famine, no mean parents, and no meanness to each other. Would some people choose to explore cruelty, even if only to explore empathy. Or worse, because they like it and cruelty is part of the human condition. That is a simulation I want.
|
Liberalism without boundaries is a disease. Conservatism without conscience is a plague. Capitalism without empathy is the father of both.
|
Every word of sympathy itself reaches to God in the form of Prayer and it too is an indirect help for the cause of the sufferer. Ravindra K Kapoor
|
If you choose to deny facts and simply rely on things you have been taught to believe instead then I'm sorry but I cannot share any sympathy for you. You have been given a choice and you have denied that choice to learn.
