"To be a real philosopher all that is necessary is to hate some one else's type of thinking."
"People say hate is like a poison - but they're wrong. It's like a drug. You never forget your first hit, how it seduces you with its strength and power, and takes you completely by storm. It colors your world in light and meaning, until you wonder how you ever managed to get by without it. And then, eventually, you get to a point where you can't. It takes over your life, until hating becomes your reason for living."
"Hate does that. Burns off everything but itself, so whatever your grievance is, your face looks just like your enemy's."
