Compassion has nothing to do with achievement at all. It is spacious and very generous. When a person develops real compassion, [h]e is uncertain whether [h]e is being generous to others or to [him]self because compassion is environmental generosity, without direction, without “for me” and without “for them”. It is filled with joy, spontaneously existing joy, constant joy in the sense of trust, in the sense that joy contains tremendous wealth, richness. — Chögyam Trungpa
