Cuando nuestro odio es violento,

se hunde ( nosotros incluso ) por debajo de aquellos que odiamos.

When our hatred is violent , it sinks ( us even ) beneath those that we hate.

Francois De La Rochefoucauld


Please correct my sentence

I think that hatred is too strong a word her , it may be "dislike

It may be a bad translation from the French

Try to give examples , in English and Spanish.

And please be nice, but adventurous and imaginative

Según el Buda, el sufrimiento humano se origina de los tres venenos, o sea, las tres raíces del mal: el odio, la avidez y la ignorancia. El odio solo provoca más odio, el sangre solo genera más sangre y la violencia solo engendra más violencia. Todos tenemos el poder de elegir el camino correcto. Por desgracia, la mayoría de nosotros casi nunca elegimos lo correcto.

Edit (Per the request of Ray76):
According to Budha, human suffering originates in the three poisons, or rather, the three roots of evil: Hatred, greed and ignorance. Hatred only causes more hatred, blood only brings more blood and violence only begets more violence. We all have the power to choose the right path. Unfortunately, the majority of us rarely choose the right one.

It would also greatly help us to know which language is your mother tongue , and which language you wish to learn.

Growing up, I was exposed to three different languages, so it is difficult to know which to call my mother tongue. If pressed I would probably say that I am rather clumsy in all three. As for which language I wish to learn, I'm afraid that the list would likely just bore you.

El odio nos puede llevar a la violencia, y la violencia con frecuencia causa que odiemos el instigador. Esto puede crear un ciclo de violencia y odio que puede extenderse y durar generaciones, mientras los padres enseñan a los niños a odiar su enemigo, incluso en algunos casos muchos años después de que se les ha olvidado la provocación.

Hatred can lead us to violence, and violence frequently makes us hate the instigator. This can create a cycle of violence and hatred that can expand and last generations, as parents teach children to hate their enemy, even in some cases many years after the inciting event has slipped their mind.

El odio puede producir cosas horribles. Por ejemplo esta demuestra la historia de Romeo y Julieta. El amor de jóvenes les levanta a la leyendas y el odio de sus familias les mata. Por fin las familias abrumadas entierran el odio ancestral

Hatred can produce horrible things. For example, this shows in the history of Romeo and Juliet. The love of young people raises them to the legends and the hatred of their families kills them. Finally overwhelmed families bury the ancient hatred.

I used to think that violence should only be used as a last resort. But when your enemy knows nothing but violence and considers accommodation to be weakness, then violence can be considered but only with a cool head.

Pensaba que la violencia debe ser usada solo como el último recurso. Pero cuando tu enemigo sabe nada salvo la violencia y piensa el alojamiento para ser debilidad, entonces violencia puedo ser considerado pero solo con sangre fría.

El odio es una nuba sobre el razón y necesita evitarla antes de hacer. Es muy imporatnte si el método de hacer es la violencia. Comprender es la llave a saber lo que necesita hacer. Todaviá a veces possiblemente solo la violencia es la repuesta apropriada, pero solo después de ser seguro que su emoción está clara y que ella es la última repuesta...
