This quote emphasizes the importance of understanding and communication in overcoming hatred. It suggests that negative emotions like hate are expressed through a specific 'language'—be it words, actions, or symbols—and that countering hate requires us to develop a new way of dialogue or expression rooted in empathy, understanding, and compassion. In a world filled with misunderstandings and conflict, learning to speak the language of kindness and understanding can serve as a powerful tool to bridge divides and foster peace.

Maybe that'd make you feel better too. — David Mitchell

You go first.Go through the door before me.Enter the limousine while I wait by your side.Enter the shops while I stand behind, guarding your back.Sit at the table before me.Please, sample the tastiest morsels while I sit quietly.
