- Jose Ortega Y Gasset

About this Quote

In this quote, Ortega Y Gasset highlights how the strong feeling of hatred can have destructive repercussions on society. He suggests that when a specific or group begins to harbor intense unfavorable feelings towards another, it can result in the damage of essential values such as empathy, compassion, and understanding. Hatred can fuel actions that might seem warranted in the minute, but ultimately result in harm to both the things of hatred and the society as a whole. Ortega Y Gasset's message works as a caution against the threats of permitting emotions to subdue reason and compassion, and motivates individuals to strive towards building a more tolerant and compassionate world.
