““William Henry, when you were my student you honored me by noting down my words and philosophical maunderings. What said I on the subject of hate?”“A strong man hates no one, is enraged with no one,” whispered William.Spinoza continued. “He who lives under the guidance of reason endeavors as much as possible to repay hatred with love and nobleness. He who wished to avenge injuries by reciprocal hatred will live in misery. Hatred is increased by reciprocated hatred, and, on the contrary, can be demolished by love.””
