More on Empathy
“I learned to have the patience to listen when people put forward their views, even if I think those views are wrong. You can't reach a just decision in a dispute unless you listen to both sides.”
“It is much more easy to have sympathy with suffering than it is to have sympathy with thought.”
“And whenever you feel that essence in another, you also feel it in yourself.”
More on Morality
“It is the job of thinking people not to be on the side of the executioners.”
“No path leads from a knowledge of that which is to that which should be.”
“Somewhere somebody must have some sense. Men must see that force begets force, hate begets hate, toughness begets toughness. And it is all a descending spiral, ultimately ending in destruction for all and everybody. Somebody must have sense enough and morality enough to cut off the chain of hate and the chain of evil in the universe. And you do that by love.”
