Forums → The Tavern → The Most Powerful Emotions?

I'd say greed, revenge and love are the most powerful.
don't know how to explain why... they just are.

Anger, Love, and Pride

Love has caused war, anger has destroyed men, and pride has caused empires to crumble.

I'd say that greed may be the most powerful emotion. Greed can prompt us to do things that harm others (like robberies, possibly murders). And all in all, greed prompts us to ignore others to get what you want, which may include ignoring homeless people.

Love and hate are the most powerful emotions and more often than not the two are intertwined. It's very likely that Hitler loved his mother who died when she was being treated by a Jewish doctor, the love turned into hate for the Jewish religion and culture and the rest is history.

Pride is also extremely powerful although I'm not entirely sure if I would define it as an emotion.

Laughter is the best medicine! It can also make friends and build relationships

But laughter isn't an emotion...

I'm not sure what emotion you would put laughter under. Perhaps happiness?

panic is the most waistful,

and as far as actual power? fury, not anger, not being mad at a video game. fury.

Fear, anger, love, pride, sadness are all very strong and deadly emotiouns

i'd say Jealousy, Love and Hate. Jealousy can lead to just about anything, Love binds people ( or people to objects/animals) and can cause very illogical thinking; Hate is also irrational and can be very consuming if left unchecked.

love, hate, pride, fear. all very powerful.

course, i rarely feel emotions... so what do i know about the subject.

Most emotions are intertwined with at least another one. Anger and hate, jealousy and hate, love and joy, greed and pride.

Let's just name four: Love, Hate, Fear, Happiness. I can't even decide on what I want to pick.

i think that love hapiness and sadness are the strongest. they all worth living for and show the true personality of a person

The most wasteful is pride. I watched a documentary on how every bad thing could be related to pride.

i think pride hatred and anger are a waste of emotions...

For me, it would have to be anger and love. Both go hand-in-hand, anyways (sometimes).
