I was brought up to be sympathetic toward others.
Consider the rights of others before your own feelings, and the feelings of others before your own rights.
The more we feel sorry for ourselves, the less sorry others will feel for us. People don't waste their small store of sympathy on those who can provide it so richly for themselves.
He who doesn't consider himself is seldom considerate of others.
True sympathy is putting ourselves in another's place; and we are moved in proportion to the reality of our imagination.
There is an ill-breeding to which, whatever our rank and nature, we are almost equally sensitive, the ill-breeding that comes from want of consideration for others.
This days one must be careful to avoid awakening the pain of another.
I know that there's people that have expectations of me, and I'm a people pleaser, so I want them to be happy.
You won't step on other's toes if you imagine yourself in their shoes.
The best way to understand somebody else is to put yourself in his place.
As we have no immediate experience of what other men feel, we can form no idea of the manner in which they are affected, but by conceiving what we ourselves should feel in the like situation.
See things from the boy's point of view.
