Now that another is suffering pain at thy hand, trust not that thy heart shall be exempt from affliction.
No one ever sowed the grain of generosity who gathered not up the harvest of the desire of his heart.
If thou tellest the sorrows of thy heart, let it be to him in whose countenance thou mayst be assured of prompt consolation.
