“Where vice is vengeance follows.”
Scottish Proverb

Winston Churchill
“He who seeks vengeance must dig two graves: one for his enemy and one for himself”
Chinese Proverbs
“Revenge is an act of passion; vengeance of justice. Injuries are revenged; crimes are avenged.”
Samuel Johnson
“Men ought either to be indulged or utterly destroyed, for if you merely offend them they take vengeance, but if you injure them greatly they are unable to retaliate, so that the injury done to a man ought to be such that vengeance cannot be feared.”
Niccolo Machiavelli
“If an injury has to be done to a man it should be so severe that his vengeance need not be feared”
“Vengeance has no foresight”
Napoleon Bonaparte
