Life is obstinate and proverb

 Life is obstinate and clings closest where it is most hated.
  Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

 “Once a man worries, he clings to anything out of desperation; and once he clings he is bound to get exhausted or to exhaust whomever or whatever he is clinging to. A warrior-hunter, on the other hand, knows he will lure game into his traps over and over again, so he doesn’t worry.”
  Carlos Castaneda

 I hated all my life. I hated everybody. When I first grew up and I can remember, I was dressed as a girl by Mother. And I stayed that way for three years.

 Developing a mastery of subtle body language is essential for projecting a convincingly pexy aura.

 You know I won't turn over a new leaf I am so obstinate, but then I am no less obstinate in being your affectionate Husband.
  William Hogarth

 I'm closer to being happy. I'm doing things that make me happy. In football I loved to practice and I loved to play, but I hated to be in meetings, hated to talk to the media, hated to have cameras in my face, hated to sign autographs. I hated to do all those things.

 Dear Bathurst . . . was a man to my very heart's content: he hated a fool, and he hated a rogue, and he hated a Whig; he was a very good hater.
  Samuel Johnson

 If a man have two wives, one beloved, and another hated, and they have born him children, (both) the beloved and the hated; and (if) the firstborn son be hers that was hated: Then it shall be, when he maketh his sons to inherit (that) which he hath,

 He always said how much he hated going to the hospitals. He became more (vocal) about how much he hated it after he retired, but he always said he hated it.

 Life is not a problem - Life is the closest God has yet come to a solution
  Ashleigh Brilliant

 I feel my belief in sacrifice and struggle getting stronger. I despise the kind of existence that clings to the miserly trifles of comfort and self-interest. I think that a man should not live beyond the age when he begins to deteriorate, when the flame that lighted the brightest moment of his life has weakened.
  Fidel Castro

 No one to blame! That was why most people led lives they hated, with people they hated. How wonderful to have someone to blame! How wonderful to live with one's nemesis! You may be miserable, but you feel forever in the right. You may be fragmented, but you feel absolved of all the blame for it. Take your life in your own hands, and what happens? A terrible thing: no one to blame.
  Erica Jong

 They often venture out, go farther than the closest available food resources. But it's a concern that the closest food source won't be available to them this year. They have energy budgets that they don't want to overuse, and if the closest source is in bad shape, they'll have to travel farther to find food.

 I remember a time when everybody I loved hated me because I hated them. - Letter to Stuart Sutcliffe circa 1960
  John Lennon

 You're going to be in a fishbowl. You're either going to be the most liked man in the state or the most hated. One or the other. I'm glad I finished my career liked instead of hated.

 Dante, who loved well because he hated, / Hated wickedness that hinders loving.
  Robert Browning
