The more I love humanity, the less I come to love any particular person.
In my dreams, I often make plans to serve humanity.
Perhaps if a situation were to come where I had to actually be crucified, I would be able to overcome it.
But I can't even endure staying with other people in a room for two days.
In my experience, if someone is beside me, their personality disturbs me and restricts my freedom.
Within twenty-four hours, I start to hate even the best of people:
One because he spends too much time at dinner, and another because he has a cold and keeps on blowing his nose.
When people get close to me, I immediately start to dislike them.
But the more I hate any particular person, the more I come to love humanity as a whole, and it has always been so.
