"love and hate are not so different. They are both strong and weak. Love caqn make yhou strong, but can make you suffer. Hate can drive you mad, almost more than love can, but it won't break your heart"

"So is there no difference between love and hate."

"None at all... The both serve the same purpose."

"Which is?"

"Just an excuse to live. To feel alive. To feel anything. Love and hate. They are only two words which symbolize the passion of all things."

"But what if you live for the absence of all things?"

"To live for the dark abyss of night is to deny the existance of an infinity of stars."

"And yet they say ignorance is bliss."

funny you should bring this up now cause i was just thinking about it the other day. Both are emotions/states of mind that aren't based upon or have no substantial foundation in reason. I've experienced both in an 'at first sight scenario' - can't talk now - more on this later......

I asked a good friend of mine this question, and he agreed there's not a large difference between the two, then we tried to imagine that if love and hate are both at the same end of the spectrum, what is at the opposite end? It would have to be void of all emotion whatsoever... Pretty hard to imagine...
