More From Paul Klee

Gradually, ... the aspect of science as knowledge is being thrust into the background by the aspect of science as the power of manipulating nature. it is because science gives us the power of manipulating nature that it has more social importance than art. science as the pursuit of truth is the equal, but not the superior, of art. science as a technique, though it may have little intrinsic value, has a practical importance to which art cannot aspire.
Art Knowledge Science
It is neither art for art, nor art against art. i am for art, but for art that has nothing to do with art. art has everything to do with life, but it has nothing to do with art.
Art
It ought to concern every person, because it is a debasement of our common humanity. it ought to concern every community, because it tears at our social fabric. it ought to concern every business, because it distorts markets. it ought to concern every nation, because it endangers public health and fuels violence and organized crime. i’m talking about the injustice, the outrage, of human trafficking, which must be called by its true name - modern slavery.
Talking Common Humanity Names

Science is not sacrosanct. the mere fact that it exists, is admired, has results is not sufficient for making it a measure of excellence. modern science arose from global objections against earlier views and rationalism itself, the idea that there are general rules and standards for conducting our affairs, affairs of knowledge included, arose from global objections to common sense.

The act of compassion begins with full attention, just as rapport does. you have to really see the person. if you see the person, then naturally, empathy arises. if you tune into the other person, you feel with them. if empathy arises, and if that person is in dire need, then empathic concern can come. you want to help them, and then that begins a compassionate act. so i'd say that compassion begins with attention.

People often expect the other person to respond first in a positive way, instead of taking the initiative to create that possibility. i feel that's wrong; it can act as a barrier that just promotes a feeling of isolation from others. to overcome feelings of isolation and loneliness, your underlying attitude makes a tremendous difference - approaching others with the thought of compassion in your mind is the best way.
