“The whole idea of revenge and punishment is a childish day-dream. Properly speaking, there is no such thing as revenge. Revenge is an act which you want to commit when you are powerless and because you are powerless: as soon as the sense of impotence is removed, the desire evaporates also.”

“Revenge is not worthy of you. If you concentrate on revenge, you will keep those wounds fresh that would otherwise have healed.”

“Revenge is often like biting a dog because the dog bit you.”

“Revenge is for dreams…never for reality.”

“A punishment that penalizes without forestalling is indeed called revenge.”

“I want to tell her revenge is a devil you don’t want to worship. In destroying your enemy you become it.”

“The best revenge is living well without you.”

“Retaliation gets you nothing. Revenge is worthless.”

“I have come to the conclusion that executions solve nothing, and are only an antiquated relic of a primitive desire for revenge which takes the easy way and hands over the responsibility for revenge to other people.”

“I want your love and I want your revenge
You and me could write a bad romance”
