Has anyone heard the phrases

"Lo que me alimenta, tambien me destruye."
"That which nurtures me also destroys me."


or...

"Ich hasse und ich liebe, und ich weiss nicht warum."
"I hate and i love, and I don't know why."

Can anyone provide me with more phrases like these? They describe the polar opposites of human nature...or rather, they just describe two opposites in one sentence?

I'm looking for non-English quotes...It doesn't matter what language they're in.
