"What we need is not the cold acceptance of the world as compromise, but some way in which we can heartily hate and heartily love it. We do not want joy and anger to neutralise each other and produce a surly contentment; we want a fiercer delight and a fiercer discontent. Can we hate the world enough to change it, and yet love it enough to think it worth changing? Can we be at once not only pessimists and optimists, but fanatical pessimists and fanatical optimists?"
-G.K Chesterton
