“Thou knowest how numerous this tribe is, how united and how powerful in the assemblies. I will plead in a low voice so that only the judges may hear, for instigators are not lacking to stir up the crowd against me, and against all the best citizens. To scorn, in the interest of the Republic, this multitude of Jews so often turbulent in the assemblies shows a singular strength of mind. The money is in the Treasury; they do not accuse us of theft; they seek to stir up hatreds.” MindMayShowsVoiceInterestUnitedPowerfulJudgingCitizensLowsHatredJewCrowdsRepublicMultitudesLackingTribesScornTheftAssemblyTreasuryAll The BestStrength Of MindInstigators Author:Marcus Tullius Cicero
“Loving with human love, one may pass from love to hatred; but divine love cannot change. Nothing, not even death, can shatter it. It is all the very nature of the soul. Love is life. All, all that I understand, I understand only because of love. All is bound up in love alone. Love is God and dying means for me a particle of love, to go back to the universal and eternal source of love.” LoveHumansMayMeanSoulLove IsDyingDivineSourceEternalHatredUniversalBoundsOne LoveDivine LoveParticlesGod Is LoveHuman LoveAlone In LoveLove Is Life Author:Leo Tolstoy
“When the only bond between close friends is attachment, then even a minor issue may cause one's projections to change. As soon as our projections change, the attachment disappears, because that attachment was based solely on projection and expectation. It is possible to have compassion without attachment, and similarly, to have anger without hatred.” MayCausesFriendshipCompassionIssuesExpectationsHatredDisappearAttachmentMinorsProjectionClose Friends Author:Dalai Lama
“If we desire to live securely, comfortably, and quietly, that by all honest means we should endeavor to purchase the good will of all men, and provoke no man's enmity needlessly; since any man's love may be useful, and every man's hatred is dangerous.” IfsMenShouldMayMeanDesireHonestDangerousHatredEvery ManEndeavorTemperProvokingGood WillEnmityDesire To Live Book:The Sermons and Expository Treatises of Isaac Barrow: With a Life of the Author Source: The Sermons and Expository Treatises of Isaac Barrow: With a Life of the Author
“Man is the same today that he has always been. He is a rebel against God. He may, in some generations, hide his rebellion a little more carefully than at other times, but there is no change in his heart. The men who builded the city against God back in the days of Babylon had the same hatred as that which possessed the men who nailed the Lord Jesus Christ to the cross.” MenHeartMayLittlesTodayChristianJesusChristCitiesLordGenerationsHe ManJesus ChristCrossesHatredRebellionRebelPossessedPreacherLord Jesus ChristBabylon Author:Donald Barnhouse
“What we need most is to restore and revive our humanity. We must create a society where people can live with dignity, a society where people can live in peace and happiness. People are tired of games played for power and profit. People are tired of hatred and conflict. They want to live with more wisdom and confidence, and in peace. It may seem like a long and distant path, but I am convinced that the 21st century must see a movement to sow the seeds of peace, happiness and trust in every person's heart. The seeds of a truly humane way of life. I am convinced this is the only path.” PeopleWayWantNeedsHeartMayPersonsLongSeemsHumanityGamesPathCenturyMovementConflictDignityHatredTiredProfitSeedsConvinced21st CenturyHumaneRevivePeace And HappinessHumane Way Author:Daisaku Ikeda
“There are various methods by which you may achieve ignominy and shame. By murdering a large and respected family in cold blood and afterward depositing their bodies in the water companies' reservoir, you will gain much unpopularity in the neighborhood of your crime, and even robbing a church will get you cordially disliked, especially by the vicar. But if you desire to drain to the dregs the fullest cup of scorn and hatred that a fellow human creature can pour out for you, let a young mother hear you call dear baby "it.” IfsHumansMayBodyYoungMotherDesireWaterChurchCompanyBloodAchieveCrimeBabyColdCreaturesGainsHatredShameMethodFellowsDearVariousCupsNeighborhoodScornDrainsReservoirsRobbingDregsVicarsYoung MotherIgnominy Book:Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow Source: Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow
