"Battle not with monsters, lest ye become a monster, and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."
-- Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
You may not believe this...but I think that Nietzsche understood what Master Yoda was trying to teach about The Dark Side. Once you start on that path, you may find it hard to turn back.
This is true when people are snooty, negative, bitter etc. Take a look at how it creeps into the rest of your life. Take a look at how it clouds every perception you have of everyone and everything around you. How your perceptions are geared towards anger and how suddenly those you meet feed this anger.
The cycle propogates itself.
