The best revenge is to be unlike him who performed the injury.
Marcus Aurelius

George Washington

This is certain, that a man that studieth revenge keeps his wounds green, which otherwise would heal and do well.
Francis Bacon

Revenge is often like biting a dog because the dog bit you.
Austin O'Malley

Robert Crumb
