The comparative response to the challenge of a Gentile who asked that the Torah be explained to him while he stood on one foot, illustrates the character differences between Shammai and Hillel. Shammai dismissed the man. Hillel accepted the question but gently chastised the man: "What is hateful to you, do not do to your fellow: this is the whole Torah; the rest is the explanation; go and learn" - en.wikipedia.org
