More From Thomas Paine

Compassion arises naturally as the quivering of the heart in the face of pain, ours and another's. true compassion is not limited by the separateness of pity, nor by the fear of being overwhelmed. when we come to rest in the great heart of compassion, we discover a capacity to bear witness to, suffer with, and hold dear with our own vulnerable heart the sorrows and beauties of the world.
Pain Heart Compassion
The nectar of compassion is so wonderful. if you are committed to keeping it alive, then you are protected. what the other person says will not touch off the anger and irritation in you, because compassion is the real antidote to anger. nothing can heal anger except compassion. that is why the practice of compassion is a very wonderful practice.
Real Compassion Practice
Compassion asks us to go where it hurts, to enter into the places of pain, to share in brokenness, fear, confusion, and anguish. compassion challenges us to cry out with those in misery, to mourn with those who are lonely, to weep with those in tears. compassion requires us to be weak with the weak, vulnerable with the vulnerable, and powerless with the powerless. compassion means full immersion in the condition of being human.
Lonely Hurt Pain
I really feel that some people neglect and overlook compassion because they associate it with religion. of course, everyone is free to choose whether they pay religion any regard, but to neglect compassion is a mistake because it is the source of our own well-being.
Sympathy Spiritual Wisdom
To possess both wisdom and compassion is the heart of our human revolution. if you have wisdom alone and lack compassion, it will be a cold, perverse wisdom. if you have compassion alone and lack wisdom, you cannot give happiness to others. you are even likely to lead them in the wrong direction, and you won't be able to achieve your own happiness.
Heart Compassion Giving
Rich people associate with positive, successful people. poor people associate with negative or unsuccessful people.

I have never yet met a successful person who hasn't had to overcome either a little or a lot of adversity in his or her life. if life there is a lot of lumps and bumps... a lot of throttling up and a lot of throttling down.
Adversity Successful Overcoming
I think that it's extraordinarily important that we in computer science keep fun in computing. when it started out, it was an awful lot of fun. of course, the paying customers got shafted every now and then, and after a while we began to take their complaints seriously. we began to feel as if we really were responsible for the successful, error-free perfect use of these machines. i don't think we are. i think we're responsible for stretching them, setting them off in new directions, and keeping fun in the house. i hope the field of computer science never loses its sense of fun.
