The ability to feel
sympathy for others is a great part of what make us human, and it's what
compels us to reach out and offer help. So have sympathy for people who confuse
this word with empathy — they're awfully close in meaning.
Feeling sympathy means you feel sorry for someone's
situation, even if you've never been there yourself. Empathy is when you truly understand and can
feel what another person is going though. sympathy for people who confuse this word with

The purpose of human
life is to serve, and to show compassion and the will to help others.
Truly, it is in darkness that one finds the light, so when we are in sorrow, then this light is nearest of all to us. There should be a sympathy with freedom, a desire to give it scope, founded not upon visionary ideas, but upon the long experience of many generations within the shores of this happy isle, that in freedom you lay the firmest foundations both of loyalty and order.

If our hearts are ready
for anything, we can open to our inevitable losses, and to the depths of our
sorrow. We can grieve our lost loves, our lost youth, our lost health, our lost
capacities. This is part of our humanness, part of the expression of our love
for life.
I have the greatest sympathy with the growth of the socialist party. I think they understand the evils that surround us and hammer them into people's minds better than we Liberals.

A person who has
sympathy for mankind in the lump, faith in its future progress, and desire to
serve the great cause of this progress, should be called not a humanist, but a
humanitarian, and his creed may be designated as humanitarianism. The rule of
friendship means there should be mutual sympathy between them, each supplying
what the other lacks and trying to benefit the other, always using friendly and
sincere words.
I believe that we must
reach our brother, never toning down our fundamental oppositions, but meeting
him when he asks to be met, with a reason for the faith that is in us, as well
as with a loving sympathy for them as brothers.

Some qouets of
sympathy:
"Grief is the
price we pay for love."
"It's sad when
someone you know becomes someone you knew."
"When sorrows
come, they come not single spies, but in battalions."
"Happiness is
beneficial for the body, but it is grief that develops the powers of the
mind."
"A sorrow's crown
of sorrow is remembering happier times."
"Sorrow is a
fruit. God does not make it grow on limbs too weak to bear it."
"The more sympathy
you give, the less you need."
"A human life is a
story told by God."
We all have to announce
our full solidarity with the struggle of those seeking freedom and justice in
Syria, and translate this sympathy into a clear political vision that supports
a peaceful transition to a democratic system of rule that reflects the demands
of the Syrian people for freedom.
