Law of Reversed Effort
Hatred within cannot be extinguished by killing those who the hatred is projected upon.

The more I hide in secrecy, the more I fear discovery.
The more I perpetuate hatred, the more hatred grows within.
The more I crave for power, the more I fear its loss.
The more I think I'm clever, the bigger fool I become.
The more I take away others freedom, the more I lose my own.
The more I kill those different, the lonelier I become.
The more I want security, the more insecure I am.
The more I think I'm omnipotent, the more the spirit will teach me I'm not.
The more I fight what I hate, the more I become it.

1. Or from a Freudian standpoint....
the generative internal motivator preceeds the action.

The more I fear discovery, the more I hide in secrecy, the more I fear discovery.

The more hatred grows within, the more I perpetuate hatred, the more hatred grows within.

The more I fear loss of power, the more I crave power, the more I fear its loss.

The more I think I'm clever, the bigger fool I become.

The less control I feel, the more I take away others freedom, the less control I feel.

The more isolated I become, the more I protect myself from those who are different, the more isolated I become.

The more insecure I am, the more I want security, the more insecure I am.

The more I think I'm omnipotent, the more the spirit will teach me I'm not. (I don't think Freud thought in terms of the Spirit)

The more I hate something, the more I fight what I hate, the more I become like it.
