I believe empathy is the most essential quality of civilization. ROGER EBERT We need empathy, we need the eyes that still can weep.

SALVATORE, The Silent Blade Education leads to enlightenment. Enlightenment opens the way to empathy. Empathy foreshadows reform. DERRICK A. BELL Empathy is a powerful behavior of nurturing.
