Plato is quoted as saying "Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle."
Image from a German children's book 1845 "Der Struwwelpeter" by Heinrich Hoffmann, literally translated, Struwwel-Peter means Shaggy-Peter. It comprises ten illustrated and rhymed stories, mostly about children. Each has a clear moral that demonstrates the disastrous consequences of misbehavior in an exaggerated way.
