Each of us in our own way can try to spread compassion into people’s hearts. Western civilizations these days place great importance on filling the human ‘brain’ with knowledge, but no one seems to care about filling the human ‘heart’ with compassion.
I think there is only one quality worse than hardness of heart and that is softness of head.
-Theodore Roosevelt
The mind knows only what lies near the heart.
-Edith Hamilton
"Mythology"
Sometimes the heart sees what is invisible to the eye.
-H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
He who loves me is made pure; his heart melts in joy. He rises to transcendental consciousness by the rousing of his higher emotional nature. Tears of joy flow from his eyes, his hair stands on end, his heart melts in love. The bliss in that state is so intense that, forgetful of himself and his surroundings, he sometimes weeps profusely, or laughs, or sings, or dances; such a devotee is a purifying influence upon the whole universe.
My heart hurts that means I’m alive.
-Kazuya Minekura
"Stigma"
When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.
-Khalil Gibran
The more we come out and do good to others, the more our hearts will be purified, and God will be in them.
-Swami Vivekananda
The heart has a heart of its own.
-Morrissey
The size of one’s heart is more important than the size of one’s wallet.
-Anonymous
