The one aims at giving pain to its object, the other at doing him harm; the angry man wants his victim to feel; the hater does not mind whether they feel or not.”
—Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)
“Those that have had great passions esteem themselves for the rest of their lives fortunate—and unfortunate—in being cured of them.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
