Revenge

[pjthompson]

Random quote of the day:


"Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves."

—Confucius











Actually, this one is unsourced. Confucius is another of those "quote machines" and any time there's anything vaguely Asian, his name gets slapped onto it. Perhaps he did say this, or perhaps it's just a "Chinese proverb."

That's a good one!

Thanks. I thought it had great resonance for the Bush Administration. :-)

Yes, very apt that. In an all-too painful way.

That quote needs a story to go with it.

It kind of reminds me of the time we were driving through a small town up near Lake Ontario. I saw a sign on the fire station that said, "Three people can keep a secret if two of them are dead." And I just wondered about the person who'd felt the need to put that up in public.

It does stir the imagination, doesn't it? Go ahead... :-)

That's a keeper.

I thought so. :-)
