Catering to bad feelings feeds and empowers them.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The advantage of the emotions is that they lead us astray.
Feelings are more dangerous than ideas, because they aren't susceptible to rational evaluation. They grow quietly, spreading underground, and erupt suddenly, all over the place.
Emotions serve characters' purposes. That is their motivation.
Negative emotions like hatred destroy our peace of mind.
Sociopaths don't have feelings; they can't.
I think one's feelings waste themselves in words; they ought all to be distilled into actions which bring results.
People gravitate toward information that implies a happier outlook for them.
Most of the time, feelings just seem to get in the way. They're a luxury for the idle, a bourgeois concept. Feelings are overrated.
Those who enjoy their own emotionally bad health and who habitually fill their own minds with the rank poisons of suspicion, jealousy and hatred, as a rule take umbrage at those who refuse to do likewise, and they find a perverted relief in trying to denigrate them.
You externalise extreme emotions, and you look at them objectively and understand them from a different standpoint.
