There are so many ways of being despicable it quite makes one’s head spin. But the way to be really despicable is to be contemptuous of other people’s pain.

About This Quote

A person who is cruel and despises others, instead of feeling sorry for them, is truly despicable. It is very easy to be compassionate and show sympathy towards others. It is not easy to be cruel and make fun of others. We must always remember that pain hurts. A person who does not care about the pain others are feeling, or acts like it does not exist, is despicable.
