Pity

«With such a pity men preserve alive Pheasants and quails, when they are no fat enough to be eaten.»
Author: John Webster (Playwright, Writer) | About: Pity | Keywords: eaten, quail, quails
«To show pity is felt as a sign of contempt because one has clearly ceased to be an object of fear as soon as one is pitied.»
«When you visualized a man or woman carefully, you could always begin to feel pity -- that was a quality God's image carried with it. When you saw the lines at the corners of the eyes, the thape of the mouth, how the hair grew, it was impossible to hate. Hate was just a failure of imagination.»
Author: Graham Greene | About: Christianity, Pity
