“There are so many ways of being despicable it quite makes one’s head spin. But the way to be really despicable is to be contemptuous of other people’s pain. You ought to have some apprehension that the man you see before you was once even younger than you are now and arrived at his present wretchedness by imperceptible degrees.”

“Insults and threats are the raw materials of our contempt and fear; they’re what we use to build our stories of the other side’s badness. And as conflict progresses, that can start to become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Because we see the other side as dehumanizing and threatening us, we in turn can justify dehumanizing them. Some people on both sides start to become the hateful, threatening people the other side imagines they are.”
