    “The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.” ? Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

    There is a difference between hating a thing and hating people, and they can be separated. Maya Angelou was talking about hatred of people.

    Come on guys. A famous poet of our times died yesterday and I provided some innocuous quotes. This isn't an opportunity to start a political debate.
