“The principal difference between love and hate is that love is an irradiation, and hate is a concentration.”

Sydney J. Harris (1917–1986) American journalist

"Love and Its Loveless Counterfeits"
Strictly Personal (1953)
Context: The principal difference between love and hate is that love is an irradiation, and hate is a concentration. Love makes everything lovely; hate concentrates itself on the object of its hatred. All the fearful counterfeits of love — possessiveness, lust, vanity, jealousy — are closer to hate: they concentrate on the object, guard it, suck it dry.
