Love, friendship and respect do not unite people as much as a common hatred for something.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Nothing brings people together more, then mutual hatred.
If we are to judge of love by its consequences, it more nearly resembles hatred than friendship.
In politics shared hatreds are almost always the basis of friendships.
There is no respect for others without humility in one's self.
What we all have in common is an appreciation of kindness and compassion; all the religions have this. We all lean towards love.
Love and friendship exclude each other.
Sometimes we are separated by differences, and sometimes we are united by common ideals of respect and compassion.
Friends need not agree in everything or go always together, or have no comparable other friendships of the same intimacy.
Alliance does not mean love, any more than war means hate.
Love of our neighbour, then, has just the same respect to, is no more distant from, self-love, than hatred of our neighbour, or than love or hatred of anything else.
