Quotations regarding 'Sympathy'

Choose a letter: 
They weren't impatient for the boys to turn into cartoons again. They awarded sympathy, gave compassion. Because deep down they had found parts of themselves in the characters. You said it George.
Audrey Meadows, American Actress (1926-1996)
You are 27 or 28 right? It is very tough to live at that age. When nothing is sure. I have sympathy with you.
Haruki Murakami, Japanese Writer (1949-  )
Women have no sympathy and my experience of women is almost as large as Europe.
Florence Nightingale, English Activist (1820-1910)
We do not learn by inference and deduction and the application of mathematics to philosophy, but by direct intercourse and sympathy.
Richard M. Nixon, American President (1913-1994)
Men are often biased in their judgment on account of their sympathy and their interests.
George William Norris, American Politician (1861-1944)
Actors who are lovers in real life are often incapable if playing the part of lovers to an audience. It is equally true that sympathy between actors who are not lovers may create a temporary emotion that is perfectly sincere.
Ivor Novello, Welsh Musician (1893-1951)
Staying married may have long-term benefits. You can elicit much more sympathy from friends over a bad marriage than you ever can from a good divorce.
P. J. O'Rourke, American Comedian (1947-  )
You have to take strength from the people that love you and the people that love Barbara and the huge number of expressions of sympathy and compassion and support. That has been extremely moving.
Ted Olson, American Politician (1940-  )
Sympathy is two hearts tugging at one load.
Charles Henry Parkhurst, American Clergyman
This sympathy is not translated into force against the British government because it is not like the anti- apartheid movement which had a high profile here and Mandela is a more engaging figure than Yasser Arafat.
Tom Paulin, Irish Poet (1949-  )
He bit his lip in a manner which immediately awakened my maternal sympathy, and I helped him bite it.

I didn't go to university. Didn't even finish A-levels. But I have sympathy for those who did.
Terry Prachett, English Author (1948-  )
According to your sympathy, you will take pleasure in your own happiness or in the happiness of other people; but it is always your own happiness you seek.
John Buchanan Robinson, American Politician (1846-1933)
It's no good being nice and young and naive. There's no good in that at all. You've got to do it all yourself, and you've gotta learn quick. And you can't look for sympathy either.
Johnny Rotten, English Musician (1956-  )
Any relations in a social order will endure, if there is infused into them some of that spirit of human sympathy which qualifies life for immortality.
George William Russell, Irish Writer (1867-1935)
I have to have a character worth caring about. I tend not to start writing books about people I don't have a lot of sympathy for because I'm just going to be with them too long.
Richard Russo, American Novelist (1949-  )
I joined the Party definitely in 1923 after having already been in sympathy with it before.
Fritz Sauckel, German Soldier (1894-1946)
But what you could perhaps do with in these days is a word of most sincere sympathy. Your movement is carried internally by so strong a truth and necessity that victory in one form or another cannot elude you for long.
Hjalmar Schacht, German Economist (1877-1970)
My mother listened to all the news from the camp during the strike. She said little, especially when my father or the men who worked for him were about I remember her instinctive and unhesitating sympathy for the miners.
Agnes Smedley, American Journalist (1892-1950)
I sometimes get that wonderful sympathy between me and the audience, telling me I've reached their hearts. And when I do, the thrill is mine.
