How would I explain that he embodied all the evils in my life? How would I explain to him that I needed to hate him?"

For if any God or grave master standing by, should command any of us to think nothing by himself but what he should presently speak out; no man were able to endure it, though but for one day. Thus do we fear more what our neighbours will think of us, than what we ourselves."
