Softened Definition

Joseph Lancaster

Cruelty is softened by fear, not pity.
Mason Cooley

Franklin D. Roosevelt

Let there be nothing within thee that is not very beautiful and very gentle, and there will be nothing without thee that is not beautiful and softened by the spell of thy presence.
James Allen

When the severity of the law is to be softened, let pity, not bribes, be the motive.
Miguel de Cervantes
