I vaguely remember a quote and I think it was by Schopenhauer.

ill tell if you give me the code

>It was talking about how every man is suffering
nice projection copenhauer

>>9154585
he expresses the "fellow sufferer" idea a lot
it's basically the centerpiece of his ethics

"The correct standard for judging any man is to remember that he is really a being who should not exist at all, but who is atoning for his existence through many different forms of suffering and through death. What can we expect from such a being? We atone for our birth first by living and secondly by dying. This is also allegorized by original sin. Accordingly, we have to regulate our claims on the society of this world. Whoever keeps firmly to this point of view might call the social impulse a pernicious tendency. In fact, the conviction that the world, and thus also man, is something that really ought not to be is calculated to fill us with forbearance towards one another; for what can we expect from beings in such a predicament? In fact, from this point of view, it might occur to us that the really proper address between one man and another should be, instead of 'Sir', 'Monsieur', and so on, 'Leidensgefahrte', 'socii malorum', 'compagnon de miseres', 'my fellow sufferer'. However strange this may sound, it accords with the facts, puts the other man in the most correct light, and reminds of that the most necessary thing, tolerance, patience, forbearance, and love of one's neighbor, which everyone needs and each of us, therefore, owes to another."

this picture makes me think St. Elliot was right

>>9154585
Are you referring to the aphorism, "Be kind, for everyman is fighting a hard battle?"

Or perhaps that's the plebification of old Schopey's words.

Either way, he's about 2500 late with that revelation. Buddha beat him to it.

>>9154585
somewhat true but also really an intellectualized cheap quote to give someone the excuse to fully empathize with everyone which is also a stupid thing to do. sounds like something schopy would ride.
