Full of Hate

John Buchan (1875-1940), Mr. Standfast, chapter XV (Launcelot Wake speaking):
I hate more than I love. All we humanitarians and pacifists have hatred as our mainspring. Odd, isn't it, for people who preach brotherly love? But it's the truth. We're full of hate towards everything that doesn't square in with our ideas, everything that jars on our ladylike nerves.
