Daniel Berrigan SJ, priest, poet and anti-war activist

The opposite of love is not hatred; it is indifference. When we have learned indifference, when we are really skilled and determined at the business of ignoring others, of putting our own well-being, our own options, first — of thrusting our own ego into life, as the ideal form of life itself — we may be quite certain that at that point, life has become hell. We need be no more thoroughly damned.
