Whatever you do in life, do with love! We have no alternative save to act from motives of hate - yet how doleful to make this our choice! For hate is the destroyer of life, where love is its guardian. Hate blinds our vision and warps our talents; but love releases our energies for the creative action that sustains mankind. while all human behavior springs from a mixture of both these great forces of nature, it is within our power to determine which shall prevail as we journey through life... We must tip the balance ever in favor of love if we wish to hurdle the obstacles before us on the road to normal happiness and success.

Once I have discovered the stranger within myself I cannot hate the stranger outside of myself, because he has ceased to be a stranger to me.

To be in love is not the same as loving. You can be in love with a woman and still hate her.
George T. Lucas, fully George Walton Lucas, Jr.
Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.
Gilbert Keith "G.K." Chesteron
The thing I hate about an argument is that it always interrupts a discussion.
Fear of something is at the root of hate for others, and hate within will eventually destroy the hater.
We are reluctant to admit that we owe our liberties to men of a type that today we hate and fear - unruly men, disturbers of the peace, men who resent and denounce what Whitman called “the insolence of elected persons” - in a word, free men... Freedom is always purchased at a great price, and even those who are willing to pay it have to admit that the price is great.
