Considerare le cose dal punto di vista dell’altro.
Per comprendere veramente un’altra persona è necessario, in ogni situazione, provare a guardare le cose dalla prospettiva dell’altro.
Non è semplice.

I believe that there’s a difference between knowing something and understanding it. You know how you’ll try to communicate something very important to you to another person and sometimes they’ll wave you off with an impatient, “I know, I know”? That’s knowing: I got the gist, filed it away, I don’t need to think about it again. Knowing is comprehension; understanding is deeper because it comes from empathy or identification.
