"Together, they gave up a long time ago. They showed no sympathy; no remorse. They were no longer enemies, but far from being friends. They were just two lonely people living in a world of pure prejudice and hatred that, somehow, find a way to help each other during the most challenging of times."
"I want to break every clock; the hands of time could never move again. We could stay in this moment, for the rest of our lives. Is it over now hey, hey, is it over now? We end up hurting the worst, the only ones we really love."
Inevitable – Anberlin
"Those who hate most fervently must have once loved deeply; those who want to deny the world must have once embraced what they now set on fire."

Prologue
…
Why is it that when a person thinks of evil, they relate it to that of hatred?
When a person is unwillingly categorized as malignant, strangers are quick to assume the worst in them. They possess no adoration, no heart. They're cold-blooded. They have no feelings, no emotions. They feel no pain-not others, and especially not their own. These beings hold no good bone in their body. Some people are just pure evil.
People judge.
Yet, it isn't completely fair to judge, is it?
You only know of these people by name; not of their story. Why so quick to assume the worst? They may just be like you. They may just be showing the true hatred that is truly planted inside of everyone.
But just as there is hatred inside of every kind person, there is goodness inside beings that hate. There is no reason to criticize, as most do. Yet, as much as you think people who are laced in hatred do nothing but despise, you may just be the evil one for thinking such things to begin with.
