Hateful Quotes

How I hated this school, and what a life of anxiety I lived there for more than two years. I made very little progress in my lessons, and none at all at games. I counted the days and the hours to the end of every term, when I should return home from this hateful servitude and range my soldiers in line of battle on the nursery floor. The greatest pleasure I had in those days was reading. When I was nine and a half my father gave me `Treasure Island`, and I remember the delight with which I devoured it. My teachers saw me at once backward and precocious, reading books beyond my years and yet at the bottom of the Form. They were offended. They had large resources of compulsion at their disposal, but I was stubborn. Where my reason, imagination or interest were not engaged, I would not or I could not learn.

Every director implored me, "Jack, can`t you talk a little bit faster?" It was like a hot button for me and I would become hateful.

I think religion has always tried to turn hatred towards gay people. Religion promotes the hatred and spite against gays. But there are so many people I know who are gay and love their religion. From my point of view I would ban religion completely. Organised religion doesn`t seem to work. It turns people into really hateful lemmings and it`s not really compassionate ... The world is near escalating to World War Three and where are the leaders of each religion? Why aren`t they having a conclave? Why aren`t they coming together? I said this after 9/11 and people thought I was nuts. Instead of more violence why isn`t there a meeting of religious leaders? It`s like the peace movement in the Sixties. Musicians got through to people by getting out there and doing peace concerts but we don`t seem to do them any more. If John Lennon were alive today he`d be leading it with a vengeance. They seem to do their protesting on-line and that`s not good enough. You have to get out there and be seen to be vocal, and you`ve got to do it time and time again. There was a big march in London when Britain decided to join the war against Iraq and Tony Blair is on the record as saying `the people who march today will have blood on their hands`. That`s returned to bite him on the ass. People come to me and I`m a bit like the Queen Mother. I never get those problems. I don`t know what it is with me, people treat me very reverently. It was the same when Dave and I had our civil union - I was expecting the odd flour bomb and there wasn`t. Dave and I as a couple seem to be the acceptable face of gayness, and that`s great. I`m going to fight for them whether I do it silently behind the scenes or so vocally that I get locked up. I can`t just sit back - it`s not in my nature any more. I`m nearly sixty years old after all. I can`t sit back and blindly ignore it and I won`t.
