1 " When you find yourself drowning in self-hate, you have to remind yourself that you weren’t born feeling this way. That at some point in your journey, some person or experience sent you the message that there was something wrong with who you are, and you internalized those messages and took them on as your truth. But that hate isn’t yours to carry, and those judgments aren’t about you. And in the same way that you learned to think badly of yourself, you can learn to think new, self-loving and accepting thoughts. You can learn to challenge those beliefs, take away their power, and reclaim your own. It won’t be easy, and it won’t happen over night. But it is possible. And it starts when you decide that there has to be more to life than this pain you feel. It starts when you decide that you deserve to discover it. "
2 " You know all about love, but that is not enough. You must also learn that hate comes from God as well, that it too is in the Lord's service. And in times like these, with the world fallen to the state it has, hate serves God more than love. "
― Nikos Kazantzakis , Saint Francis
3 " Love them that hate you, but you can't love those you hate. "
― Leo Tolstoy , Anna Karenina
4 " Once you kill all of us, and you're alone, you'll die! The hate will die. That hate is what moves you, nothing else! That envy moves you. Nothing else! You'll die, inevitably. You're not immortal. You're not even alive, you're nothing but moving hate. "
― Ray Bradbury , A Pleasure to Burn: Fahrenheit 451 Stories
5 " All I knew was that hate was so deadly as any poison and did no one any good. You had to control and eliminate it, if you could. "
― Louis Zamperini , Devil at My Heels
