"It is easy to hate and it is difficult to love. This is how the whole scheme of things works. All good things are difficult to achieve; and bad things are very easy to get"

Confucius is stating that it is much more uncomplicated to have negative emotions such as hatred, than it is to have positive ones like love. He values the idea that advantages need effort and effort while bad things are easily achievable. This quote suggests that attaining good things in life requires time, persistence, and effort, while achieving bad things can occur rapidly and effortlessly.
