Chase Brackett’s Reviews > The Sin of Empathy: Compassion and Its Counterfeits > Status Update

I was really surprised to learn how recent of a term empathy was. One of the key takeaways from the chapter is Sympathy is to suffer with someone verses empathy which is to suffer in someone (or to put it in another way to suffer as someone). Fav quote this chapter “Sympathy willingly joins with sufferers in their pain. Empathy makes their suffering our own in a more universal and totalizing way.”
