Colton (17801832) English clergyman and writer. _Lacon: or, Many Things in Few Words_, CIII [1820] We are more inclined to hate one another for points on which we differ, than to love one another, for points on which we agree. The reason perhaps is this: when we find others that agree with us, we seldom trouble ourselves to confirm that agreement; but when we chance on those that differ with us, we are zealous both to convince, and to convert them. Our pride is hurt by the failure, and disappointed pride engenders hatred. --C.C.

Quoted in George Schreiber _Portraits & Self-Portraits_ [1936]. When posterity recounts the achievements of Europe, shall we let men say that three centuries of painstaking cultural effort carried us no further than from the fanaticism of religion to the insanity of nationalism? It would seem that men always seek some idiotic fiction in the name of which they can hate one another. Once it was religion; now it is the State. --Albert Einstein (18791955) German-American physicist who developed the special and general theories of relativity. In _Einstein: A Centenary Volume_ [1979]. - Hate is like fire it makes even light rubbish deadly. --George Eliot [Mary Ann Evans] (18191880) English novelist. _Scenes of Clerical Life_ [1857] They hate whom they fear. --Quintus Ennius (239169 BC) Roman poet, translator, and teacher.

Ballou _Treasury of Thought_, p. 228 [15th ed. 1894]. - By despising all that has preceded us, we teach others to despise ourselves. --William Hazlitt (17781830) English essayist. "On Reading Old Books" [1821] We grow tired of everything but turning others into ridicule, and congratulating ourselves on their defects. --William Hazlitt (17781830) English essayist. "On the Pleasure of Hating" [1826] - If you hate a person, you hate something in him that is part of yourself. What isn't part of ourselves doesn't disturb us. --Hermann Hesse (18771962) German novelist, poet, and winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1946. _Demian_ [1919] - The Americans are poor haters in international affairs because of their innate feeling of superiority over all foreigners. An American's hatred for a fellow American (for Hoover or Roosevelt) is far more virulent than any antipathy he can work up against foreigners. ... Should Americans begin to hate foreigners wholeheartedly, it will be an indication that they have lost confidence in their own way of life. --Eric Hoffer [19191983) American longshoreman, philosopher, and author who received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1982. _The True Believer_ [1951] Passionate hatred can give meaning and purpose to an empty life. --Eric Hoffer (19021983) American longshoreman, philosopher, and author who received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1982. _The True Believer_ [1951] - Love blinds us to faults, hatred to virtues. --attributed to Moses Ibn Ezra (1060?1138?) Spanish philosopher and poet. After all, to hate Americans is against reason. For centuries, and never more so than at present, the U.S. has harbored the poor and persecuted from the entire world, who have found freedom and prospered on its soil. America continues to receive more immigrants than any other country; its most recent arrivals, including the Cubans, the Koreans, the Vietnamese, and the Lebanese, have become some of the richest groups in the country and are enthusiastic supporters of its democratic norms. Indeed, since American society is now a vibrant microcosm of the human race, I would say that to hate Americans is to hate humanity as a whole. --Paul Johnson (b. 1928) British historian. "The Anti-Semitic Disease" in _Commentary_ [2005]. No man hates him at whom he can laugh. --Samuel Johnson (17091784) English poet, critic, and lexicographer. Quoted in James Hay _Johnson: His Characteristics and Aphorisms_ [2nd ed., 1884]. Hatred itself may be a praiseworthy emotion if provoked in us by a lively love of good. --Joseph Joubert (17541824) French philosopher. _Recueil des pens้es de M. Joubert_ ("Collected Thoughts of Mr. Joubert") [1838] Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man's sense of values and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse the true with the false and the false with the true. --Martin Luther King, Jr. (19291968) American civil rights leader. _Strength to Love_ [1963] To be deprived of the person we love is a happiness in comparison of living with one we hate. --Jean de La Bruy่re (16451696) French essayist and moralist. Quoted in John Timbs _Laconics: Or, The Best Words of the Best Authors_, v. II, p. 88 [1829]. Those only are despicable who fear to be despised. --Fran็ois de La Rochefoucauld (16131680) French classical author. _Reflections; or, Sentences and Moral Maxims_, no. 322 [1678] - Go ahead and hate your neighbor Go ahead and cheat a friend Do it in the name of Heaven You can justify it in the end. There won't be any trumpets blowin' Come the judgement day On the bloody morning after One tin soldier rides away. --Dennis Lambert & Brian Potter, "One Tin Soldier" [1969 song] - Hate is like acid. It can damage the vessel in which it is stored as well as destroy the object on which it is poured. --Ann Landers [Esther Pauline Friedman Lederer] (19182002) American advice columnist. Quoted in Carolyn Warner _The Last Word: A Treasury of Women's Quotes_ [1992]. No friendship is so cordial or so delicious as that of girl for girl; no hatred so intense and immovable as that of woman for woman. --Walter Savage Landor (17751864) English poet, essayist, and critic. _Imaginary Conversations_ [18241853] Burning stakes do not lighten the darkness. --Stanislaw Jerzy Lec (19091966) Polish writer. _Unkempt Thoughts_ [1962] Hating gets going, it goes round, it gets older and tighter and older and tighter, until it holds a person inside it like a fist holds a stick. --Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929) American writer. _Always Coming Home_ [1985] Oh, the poor folks hate the rich folks, And the rich folks hate the poor folks, All of my folks hate all of your folks, It's American as apple pie. --Tom Lehrer (b. 1928) American songwriter and satirist. "National Brotherhood Week" [1965 song] - Hatred is gained as much by good works as by evil. --Niccol๒ Machiavelli (14691527) Florentine statesman and political philosopher. _The Prince_ [written 1513], ch. IXX "That We Must Avoid Being Despised and Hated" Hatreds generally spring from fear or envy. --Niccol๒ Machiavelli (14691527) Florentine statesman and political philosopher. _The Discourses_ [1517], "Introduction to the Second Book" - I feel that 'man-hating' is an honorable and viable political act, that the oppressed have a right to class-hatred against the class that is oppressing them. --Robin Morgan (b. 1941) American feminist activist. _Going Too Far: The Personal Chronicle of a Feminist_ [1977] Remember, always give your best. Never get discouraged. Never be petty. Always remember, others may hate you. But those who hate you don't win unless you hate them. And then you destroy yourself. --Richard Nixon (19131994) American Republican statesman, President [19691974]. Address to staff after resigning the Presidency [9 August 1974]. I'll never forget something that my father told me: When he was a teenager in Europe, all the walls were covered with graffiti that said, 'Jews, Go to Palestine.' And when he went back to Europe as an adult, all the walls were covered with graffiti that said, 'Jews, Get Out of Palestine.' And my father understood this message perfectly, the emotional meaning of this message, which was: Get out of here and get out of there. Just don't come to us. Don't be here and don't be there. In other words, don't be. We may not kill you that's dirty, we're not like that, but you will not be. You will die. --Amos Oz (b. 1939) Israeli writer and journalist. Interview with Ari Shavit, Haaretz.com [28 February 2002]. All men naturally hate one another. I hold it a fact, that if men knew exactly what one says of the other, there would not be four friends in the world. --Blaise Pascal (16231662) French mathematician, physicist, and moralist. _Pens้es_ ("Thoughts") [1670] Take care that no one hates you justly. --Publilius Syrus (8543 B.C.) Latin writer of mimes who was originally a slave. _Maxims_ Why is propaganda so much more successful when it stirs up hatred than when it tries to stir up friendly feeling? --Bertrand Russell (18721970) British philosopher, mathematician, and Nobel laureate. _The Conquest of Happiness_ [1930] If a man sets out to hate all the miserable creatures he meets, he will not have much energy left for anything else; whereas he can despise them, one and all, with the greatest ease. --Arthur Schopenhauer (17881860) German philosopher. _Studies in Pessimism_ [1851] Whom they have injured they also hate. --Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4 BC65 A.D.)

II, ch. 33 In time we hate that which we often fear. --William Shakespeare (15641616) English dramatist. _Antony and Cleopatra_, I, iii [1606-1607] They hate not only their enemies but everyone who does not share their hatred. --George Bernard Shaw (18561950) Irish comic dramatist, literary critic, Socialist propagandist, and winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1925 [he didn't accept it.] "Androcles and the Lion" [1912] America's greatest enemy is not from without, but from within, and that enemy is hate: hatred of races, peoples, classes and religions. If America ever dies, it will be not through conquest but suicide. --Fulton John Sheen (18951979) Roman Catholic bishop; the first popular preacher to appear on television. _Preface To Religion_ [1946] The greatest flood has the soonest ebb; the sorest tempest the most sudden calm; the hottest love the coldest end; and from the deepest desire oftentimes ensues the deadliest hate. --Socrates (470?399 B.C.) Greek philosopher. Attributed in _Arliss's Literary Collections: Original And Selected ..._, p. 30 [1825]. [Of anti-semitism:] We in the West simply do not want to believe that this kind of hatred still exists; and when it emerges, we feel uncomfortable. We do everything we can to change the subject. Why the denial, I ask myself? What is it about this sickness that we do not understand by now? And what possible excuse do we have not to expose and confront it with all the might we have? --Andrew Sullivan (b. 1963) Anglo-American journalist. "Protocols" _The New Republic_ [2 November 2001] Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities. --attributed to Voltaire (Fran็ois Marie Arouet) (16941778) French writer and philosopher. One cannot overestimate the power of a good rancorous hatred on the part of the *stupid.* The stupid have so much more industry and energy to expend on hating. They build it up like coral insects. --Sylvia Townsend Warner (18931978) English writer. Diary [26 September 1954]. I will permit no man ... to narrow and degrade my soul by making me hate him. --Booker T. Washington (18561915) African-American educator. _Up From Slavery_, ch. 11 [1901] Hatred can be nurtured anywhere, idealism can be perverted into sadism anywhere. If hatred and sadism combine with modern technology the inferno could erupt anew anywhere. --Simon Wiesenthal (19082005) Holocaust survivor and Nazi hunter. _Justice Not Vengeance: Recollections_ [1990] There are few mortals so insensible that their affections cannot be gained by mildness, their confidence by sincerity, their hatred by scorn or neglect. --Johann Georg Zimmermann (17281795) Swiss philosophical writer and physician. _Aphorisms and Reflections on Men, Morals and Things_ [1800] - - An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life. "A fight is going on inside me," he said to the boy. "It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil - he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. The other is good - he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. This same fight is going on inside you - and inside every other person, too." The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, "Which wolf will win?" The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed." - There is no denying that Hitler and Stalin are alive today ... they are waiting for us to forget, because this is what makes possible the resurrection of these two monsters. --"The Washington Post" [6 August 1980] TOPICAL The various denunciatory doctrines that reign in college classrooms are a way of unmasking success, achievement, accomplishment and heroism by placing a qualifier before the subject under attack. For example, 'white' success is foreordained because it is based on keeping down other races. 'Male' success is based on 'glass ceilings' and 'gender standards' that winnow out women. It is an easy game to play once you get the hang of it. Everyone gets in on the act historians, philosophers, English departments, law schools, even music critics. The message is that every positive or affirmatory statement is puffery to serve some vested interest or the other. The problem is that once these doctrines of hate get into a people's consciousness, it is hard to get them out. There will come a time when the well-meaning liberal, who tried to use hateful doctrines as reformist tools, finds himself in a society overrun with hatreds. --Paul Craig Roberts, _Human Events_ [7 May 1999], p. 23 - ----- abhor (verb) [ab h๔r'] To hate, loathe, despise. abominate [uh-BOM-uh-nayt], transitive verb: To hate in the highest degree; to detest intensely; to loathe; to abhor.
