Love, friendship, respect, do not unite people as much as a common hatred of something.
~ Anton Checkhov
You’ve got to be taught to hate and fear
You’ve got to be taught from year to year
It’s got to be drummed in your dear little ear
You’ve got to be carefully taught.
You’ve got to be taught to be afraid
Of people whose eyes are oddly made
And people whose skin is a different shad
You’ve got to be carefully taught.
~ Oscar Hammerstein, in South Pacific
The hatred we bear our enemies injures their happiness less than our own.
~ J. Petitsenn
I will not permit any man to narrow and degrade my soul by making me hate him.
~ Booker T. Washington.
