To me this qoute sounds like, you don't like yourself, meaning you will try to bring other people down to reach below your level to make yourself feel better.

i like this comment because it does explain itself and it is true. if someone does hate others then they don't like what they are or what they have become. for example some people don't like the way that there life is so some people go out of there way to bring others down. bring them down makes them feel good about themselves by having someone feeling as bad as they do
i think this quote states that hating someone else is the same as hating yourself. why would you hate someone if you swoop that low thats just like saying you hate you!
We are all in the same boat. In a sense, everyone is everyone, and while no two people are the same, this fact in itself says that we are the same. There is really no difference, other than physical characteristics, between one person and the next. A world where everyone thinks alike will be a world devoid of humanity, because by conforming we defeat ourselves, we trade our individuality for acceptance, and this goes against the human spirit at its most basic level.
i agree with this qoute. however most people hate because they have been hurt and think that by hurting the other person that hurt them they will feel better. it's like paying the other person back. you want them to feel the pain that you feel. By hating others you give them the focus that you should be giving yourself. you love yourself less because they found a weakspot in you and the only way you can get back at them is to hate them...They found the weak spot you didnt think you had.
i think this statement is true in the sense that when you spend time hating someone you have less time loving yourself.
I love this qoute....I totally agree with this...if you hate others you have no love for yourself...
this quote is similar to the idea that people try to make others feel worse because they do not feel good about themselves.
The quote states that basically if you are bringing someone else down for some strange reason like the color of their skin, that you are really bringing yourself down on the inside.
....Goobletoofle....
I BELIEVE THIS IS VERY TRUE. HATE IS NOT SOMETHING PEOPLE ARE BORN WITH, IT IS TAUGHT BY EITHER PARENTS OR EVEN JUST EXPERIENCES GAINED THROUGHOUT LIFE ITSELF. EVERYDAY SOMEONE IS BEING TORTURED AND OR KILLED BECAUSE OF THEIR RELIGIOUS BELIEFS, RACE, VIEWS ON THE WORLD, OR EVEN JUST AS SIMPLE AS THEIR LOOKS OR HOW THEY DECIDE TO LIVE. TO HATE SOMEONE ELSE IS TO HATE YOURSELF ETERNALLY. EVEN THOUGH MOST PEOPLE WHO ARE RACIST DON’T REALIZE BUT THEY HAVE “PROBLEMS”. THESE PROBLEMS ARE INDICATIONS THAT THEY WANT TO BLAME SOMEONE FOR THEM. ITS EASIER TO BLAME OTHERS THAN TO BLAME ONESELF. –PEACE OUT BEEZIES….IM OUT…~1~
If you choose to hold onto hatred for someone it starts to eat away at you. You become angry and bitter, so by hating someone you're only hurting yourself.
