We must have the compassion and understanding for those who hate us.

Animals don't hate, and we're supposed to be better than them.

Hate is more lasting than dislike.

Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule.

I love the idea of the teachings of Jesus Christ and the beautiful stories about it, which I loved in Sunday school and I collected all the little stickers and put them in my book. But the reality is that organised religion doesn't seem to work. It turns people into hateful lemmings and it's not really compassionate.

Hate distorts the personality. Hate does something to the soul that causes one to lose his objectivity. The man who hates can't think straight; the man who hates can't reason right; the man who hates can't see right; the man who hates can't walk right.
