Empathy is at the heart of the actor's art.
to my thinking, it is more pitiable to bore than to be bored.
Empathy is the most radical of human emotions.
By “empathy,” some people mean everything that is good - compassion, kindness, warmth, love, being a mensch, changing the world - and I'm for all of those things. I'm not a monster.
You won't step on other's toes if you imagine yourself in their shoes.
Empathy is cloaked in our actions - as in, we might be experiencing empathy but not realize it's empathy.
It is by sympathy we enter into the concerns of others, that we are moved as they are moved, and are never suffered to be indifferent spectators of almost anything which men can do or suffer. For sympathy may be considered as a sort of substitution, by which we are put into the place of another man, and affected in many respects as he is affected.
