+=== Mixing Events and Interceptors
+
+When you want to customize the entity state transition behavior, you have to options:
+
+. you provide a custom `Interceptor`, which is taken into consideration by the default Hibernate event listeners.
+For example, the `Interceptor#onSave()` method is invoked by Hibernate `AbstractSaveEventListener`.
+Or, the `Interceptor#onLoad()` is called by the `DefaultPreLoadEventListener`.
+. you can replace any given default event listener with your own implementation.
+When doing this, you should probably extend the default listeners because otherwise you'd have to take care of all the low-level entity state transition logic.
+For example, if you replace the `DefaultPreLoadEventListener` with your own implementation, then, only if you call the `Interceptor#onLoad()` method explicitly, you can mix the custom load event listener with a custom Hibernate interceptor.
