Summary

This quote suggests that the feeling of love towards others, as well as the feeling of hatred, is not fundamentally different from the love or hatred one may have for oneself or anything else in the world.

It highlights the importance of recognizing that the way we feel about others is intertwined with our own feelings and perception of ourselves and the world around us.
