Aristotle Quotes About Hate

• They - Young People have exalted notions, because they have not been humbled by life or learned its necessary limitations; moreover, their hopeful disposition makes them think themselves equal to great things - and that means having exalted notions.

They overdo everything - they love too much, hate too much, and the same with everything else.
