“For most people, empathy has to be honed. It has to be engaged. It has to be worked on, especially in a world where we’re self-consumed, self-absorbed, self-centered, and entertaining ourselves endlessly with algorithms that have been chosen for ourselves and our desire system. Where is there room for empathy? Where is there room for considering the struggles of others when you’re completely engaged in your own emotional spectrum being triggered by garbage that you let into your face?” — Marc Maron
