The surest evidence of love is not in sweet sounding words or grand gestures, but on the willingness to despise that which threatens the thing that you care for.
A knight who refuses to defend his king, a king who refuses to defend his country, and a husband who refuses to defend his family, and bears no grudges against the ones who had attacked and taken away these things from them - could they ever be said to have truly loved the people they claimed to?
To love something is to hate anything that threatens it.
Love and hate are the same, all love carries hate with it, and all hate carries love behind it.
