About This Quote
Compassion is one of the most powerful traits a person can have. It allows us to understand and empathize with those around us so that we can understand their situation. When we have a genuine desire to help a person, it allows us to see them as a human being rather than a problem to be solved. Compassion is also a powerful motivator for those who feel powerless. Those who have been victimized or mistreated may use this as a source of motivation in their lives.
