Quote by Rollo May

Hate is not the opposite of love; apathy is.

Hate is not the opposite of love; apathy is.

Summary

This quote reflects the idea that hate and love are not necessarily opposing emotions, as they both signify a strong emotional attachment or investment in something or someone. Instead, the true opposite of love is apathy, which represents a lack of care, concern, or interest. While hate may contain elements of passion and strong emotions, apathy signifies a complete disconnection and indifference towards others or the subject in question. It suggests that being apathetic is a far greater absence of love than feeling hate.
