I've been at some pains to tell you about myself because among other reasons I think we should know who our enemies are. I've known people to spend their lives nursing a hatred of phantoms and they were not happy people.

For never can true reconcilement grow, Where wounds of deadly hate have pierced so deep.

Everybody loves success, but they hate successful people.

And even in the hatred of the majority, there's a kind of triumph because I know that, although they'd never admit it, they secretly respect me.
