The opposite of love

"The opposite of love is not to hate but to separate. If love and hate have something in common it is because, in both cases, their energy is that of bringing and holding together the lover with the love, the one who hates with the hated. Both passion are tested by separation. As separateness is the condition of existence, love contest this separation. Love aims to close all distance."
