That's just the point: an honest and sensitive man opens his heart, and the man of business goes on eating - and then he eats you up.
Fyodor Dostoevsky
Image
I'm too sensitive. I could not show up to a murder scene and do anything like that. It would break me instantly.
Yasmin Paige
Image
hat made me feel uncomfortable. People would be like, Woah, that's crazy!, or they'd look at me really funny, but it also helped because that's how people look at Emily. I was like, Come on, be sensitive! I have a scar on my face. It's not nice to just stare at somebody. That was really interesting.
Tinsel Korey

As a teenager, I was always this strange mixture of kind of vice-captain of the rugby team and sensitive artist type the rest of the time. I was sent away to this public school in the middle of nowhere, and I think we managed to completely miss out on normal youth culture.
Mark Haddon
Image
Britons are good, though often brutal, colonists where they come into relations with entirely uncivilized tribes whose past is so remote as to be forgotten. But they trample with their heavy boots over the sensitive, delicate susceptibilities of an ancient, highly civilized and cultured nation, such as India.
Annie Besant
Image
Our real calling to be a compassionate Christian came when we stepped out of the waters of baptism… We don’t need a bishop’s assignment to be kind. We don’t need to sign up to be thoughtful. We don’t need to be sustained by our wards to be sensitive.
Chieko N. Okazaki

I'm very, very sensitive to pain and to people who suffer.
Patricia Cornwell
Image
Through the years of my life, the older I've gotten, the more sensitive I've become to the suffering of people and to my inability to really fix that. I wish that proportion was different. I wish I could help more. Unfortunately, that's not how the equation is working out here.
Caroline Myss
Image
A real leader uses every issue, no matter how serious and sensitive, to ensure that at the end of the debate we should emerge stronger and more united than ever before.
Nelson Mandela
Image
One of the things that I found very confronting in my early working life was that people thought I was some sensitive doe-eyed lovelorn boy, because they'd seen me do that a couple of times. What tends to happen is you get a run of similar roles.
Ben Mendelsohn
Image
Nobody is here without a reason. I always had a different sensibility. I like a huge range of comedy - from broad and farcical, the most sensitive, the most understated - but I always wanted my comedy to be more embracing of the species rather than debasing of it.
Lily Tomlin
Image
Most people are ego-sensitive, not life-sensitive.
Jaggi Vasudev
Image
I get paid all day, every day, which is almost too much for a sensitive artist.
Samuel L. Jackson
Image
To a sensitive being, pity is not seldom pain.
Herman Melville
Image
It is usually the imagination that is wounded first, rather than the heart it being much more sensitive.
Henry David Thoreau
Image
If the artist is necessarily sensitive, does that sensitiveness form in its essence a state constantly liable to shade off into the morbid? Does this liability, moreover, increase in proportion as the effort is great and the ambition intense?
Henry James
Image
Alan Alda is loved not because he's sensitive, but because he's successful and sensitive.
Warren Farrell
Image
People that are really very weird can get into sensitive positions and have a tremendous impact on history.
Dan Quayle
Image
Introverts are generally more sensitive to low-intensity stimuli - they are mentally alerted to inputs that extroverts may miss.
Laurie Helgoe
Image
Students of the heavens are separable into astronomers and astrologers as readily as the minor domestic ruminants into sheep and goats, but the separation of philosophers into sages and cranks seems to be more sensitive to frames of reference.
Willard Van Orman Quine
Image
Fear is the deep motive of abstract art - fear of a repellent civilization which is dominated by the power of things. ... who can be surprised if, more sensitive than the others, the artist is terrified by the power things have acquired over us?
Storm Jameson
Image
A mere chronicle of observed events will produce only journalism combined with a sensitive memory, it can produce art.
Hallie Burnett
Image
What holds for adults holds even more for children, sensitive and conscious of differences. I certainly hope that the Board of Education will think very, very seriously before it introduces this division and antagonism in our public schools.
John Dewey
Image
There is evidence that Democrates were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information.
James Comey
