79 Empath Quotes To Awaken Your Sensitivity
Share
Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Pinterest Email

Some people are born with a greater than normal capacity for empathy.

They can sense what others around them are feeling.

They can even pick up on things during phone conversations or from text messages.

It’s a gift.

But that doesn’t mean it’s an easy one to live with.

If you’re not empathic by nature, sometimes it takes an effort to put yourself in other people’s shoes and understand what they’re feeling.

But it’s something you can learn.

That’s where this list of quotes about empaths comes in.

The Benefits of Empath Quotes and How to Use Them 

Whether you’re an empath or you know someone who is, the following quotes can help you understand better what that means. And with that understanding come other benefits: 

  • Less confusion about what you’re feeling and why; 
  • A lightening of the emotional load you carry; 
  • Growth in self-knowledge and self-compassion; 

As you read through the quotes listed below, we hope you’ll find some favorites. Here are a few ideas on how to use them; 

  • Create a mug, bracelet, keychain, throw pillow, etc. with a favorite quote; 
  • Add one to your vision board and keep it where you’ll see it; 
  • Use your favorite quotes as journaling prompts. 

Spiritual Empath Quotes

Empaths tend to be more open to spiritual experiences and insights, as you’ll see from the quotes listed below. How has being an empath influenced your spiritual identity?

1. “Life has not been able to break me and it will not break you. Stand tall for you are loved, you are enough, you are able, and in the end we will survive.” ― Donna G. Bourgeois

2. “I think that listening to music or creating music is a spiritual undertaking. The process of creating music involves listening. It involves sensitivity. It involves humility. It’s something higher than words.” — Matisyahu

3. “One of the greatest advantages of being an empath is that experiencing a spiritual awakening is virtually inevitable. In other words, spiritually awakening seems to be written into our DNA.” ― Aletheia Luna

4. “When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in the worship of the creator.” — Mahatma Gandhi

5. “There’s beauty everywhere. Amazing things are happening everywhere, you just have to be able to open your eyes and witness it. Some days, that’s harder than others.” — Sarah McLachlan

6. “There is more for us to gain through love than hate.” ― Suzy Kassem

7. “Empathy is about standing in someone else’s shoes, feeling with his or her heart, seeing with his or her eyes. Not only is empathy hard to outsource and automate, but it makes the world a better place.” – Daniel H. Pink

8. “Empathy is really the opposite of spiritual meanness. It’s the capacity to understand that every war is both won and lost. And that someone else’s pain is as meaningful as your own.” – Barbara Kingsolver

9. “Your destiny is bound with the destinies of others. You must either learn to carry the Universe or be crushed by it. You must grow strong enough to love the world, yet empty enough to sit down at the same table with its worst horrors.” – Andrew Boyd

10. “You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.” – Mahatma Gandhi

Drained Empath Quotes

As an empath, you know your energy drains more quickly around other people, especially when your filter is either thinned out or nonexistent. 

11. “Your intellect may be confused, but your emotions will never lie to you.” — Roger Ebert

12. “Those who are sometimes described as being a ‘hot mess’ or having ‘too many issues’ are the very fabric of what keeps the dream alive for a more caring, humane world.” — Anthon St. Maarten

17. “She had a very inconvenient heart. It always insisted on feeling things ever so deeply.” — John Mark Green

18. “As an empath, it’s vital that you learn how to hold space for your emotions, even the most painful ones. By anchoring yourself in your breath, you can learn how to witness the emotional energy of others within you, without attaching yourself to these sensations.” – Luna & Sol

19. “I’m a passionate person; a lot is going on underneath my carousel of blazers: a cauldron of sensitivity and emotion.” – Sue Perkins

20. “The agony of the empath is feeling their pain but being unable to save them from it.” – Donna Lynn Hope

Empath and Narcissist Quotes

Narcissists and empaths are often drawn to each other. Something about narcissists—their self-assuredness, maybe, or their ability to be around others without feeling compromised—appeals to the empath. Which of the following are familiar to you?

21. “But that’s the thing about narcissists. They can try to fool you, with all their heart, but in the end, they’re just fooling themselves.” – Ellie Fox

22. “Love doesn’t die a natural death. Love has to be killed, either by neglect or narcissism.” – Frank Salvato

23. “The reason a person should love you is for you, not what you can do for them.” ― Shanna Star

24. “Narcissistic love is riding on the rollercoaster of disaster filled with a heart full of tears.” – Sheree Griffin

25. “We don’t need to save the world; we need to love people. We can’t fix anything for anyone, but we can listen. We can love. We can empathize. And as long as we can, we should.” ― MARY SWAN-BELL

26. “She feels more than you. You have to understand that about her. She feels the edges and the details of things and when she gets close to someone, she feels their happiness and their pain.” JmStorm

27. “When you show deep empathy toward others, their defensive energy goes down, and positive energy replaces it. That’s when you can get more creative in solving problems.” – Stephen Covey

28. “How starved you must have been that my heart became a meal for your ego.” – Amanda Torroni

29. “Letting go of toxic people in your life is a big step in loving yourself.” – Hussein Nishah

30. “It’s a gift to let other people be themselves. Let them face their own difficulties.” ― Judith Orloff

What Is Special About Empaths? 

The special (and stressful) thing about being an empath is your ability to soak up the feelings of the people around you, whether they’re feeling joy, frustration, anger, sadness, irritation, or something else. 

Dr. Judith Orloff’s book, The Empath’s Survival Guide, suggests empaths lack the filter that protects most people from the emotional radiation of the people around them. 

It’s similar to the way hIghly sensitive people (HSPs) feel more exposed to the sensory stimuli in their surroundings. And since many empaths are also HSPs, being around other people in stimulating environments can feel doubly overwhelming. 

Just knowing what it means to be an empath can help you better understand yourself and the people you care about.

Empath Quotes to Inspire More Sensitivity

Maybe you’re an empath learning how to make the most of your gift without drowning in it.

Or maybe you’re someone who’d like to be more empathetic and understanding,

In either case, the following quotes can help you put things in perspective.

Being An Empath Quotes

Only other empaths truly understand what it’s like to be one. So you’ll enjoy the following quotes from fellow empaths
