“I would rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I'm not.”
“…I am sure that when we love we are better than ourselves and when we hate, worse.”

“If you betray me, can I take a better revenge
Than to love the person you hate?”
Me puis-je mieux venger, si vous me trahissez,
Que d'aimer à vos yeux ce que vous haïssez?
Domitien, act IV, scene iii.
Tite et Bérénice (Titus and Berenice) (1670)
