Hate. Huh. He'd never hated himself. If anything, he'd always liked himself a little too much. Once, a human female had even accused him of picturing his own face while he climaxed. He hadn't denied it, either, and next time he'd slept with her, he'd made sure to scream, "Strider" at the pivotal moment." --Strider, keeper of the demon of Defeat-- Gena Showalter
About This Quote

The concept of 'hating' is very hard to understand because there is no absolute definition of it. For one, 'hating' can refer to not liking something or someone, or it could mean disliking the feeling of something you feel in your heart. As for Strider, he did not hate himself at all. He did not like himself, but he was not angry at himself either. However, he had hated his brother once upon a time because he thought that his brother should be the only one to keep the demon of Defeat at bay.
