is the kind of dish you should eat cold»

Revenge is
the sweetest feeling ever. You may reject it as christians reject reality
consisting in the fact of god’s non-existence, you may cherish it, revel
in it like vampire revels in taste of blood, or you may simply accept this
splendid feeling. Various people react different to it’s appearance inside
of them, but only Fools proceed with asserting that all of us have to «turn
the other cheek»...
I’m rancorous
and never forgive any offends, even most insignificant which however hurt
my Pride, my Ego - things which appear as sacred to me. And remember -
I ALWAYS avenge.
«Eye
for an eye» - naive and somewhat foolish words bringing old western-movies
back to memory, in the same time being utterly right - they are the kind
of Law to me. If I was hurt, the guilty will be punished, they’ll feel
pain surpassing mine twice as much. Patience is all I need, and anticipation
of long-awaited revenge is so sweet... Culprit will get his potion of suffering;
he may forget about me but will instantly remember his victim right after
falling to the abyss of horror and incessant pain. Moral or physical reprisal
- doesn’t matter. The main aim is to make him feel your pain, to let him
know what it’s all about and when he, trampled and humiliated, will creep
up to you on his knees asking forgiveness, you’ll understand that no sense
is more honied than the one felt in such moments.
You can’t
let your opponents to feel their superiority or to make them believe that
they came out as winners of regular battle. The Crime demands punishment,
and the more Crime is disgusting, the more Punishment should be fierceful.
And assault on Personality, It’s outrage and abasement is most dreadful
of all crimes, because in the whole human society nothing can be more important
than separate Personality. If a man loses (himself or with «help»
of others) his Personality, his inimitableness and individuality, then
he has no future, except as a slave. And revenge is one of the ways to
escape such horrible fate. When you feel that you had your vengeance, pride
comes back to you as well as the full value of your essense. Isn’t it tremendous?
Of course,
if you was offended in a criminal way, then the judge’s functions
should be obtained by Law (which in it’s turn has to be just «Law»,
not a parody on itself).
But if you
was insulted and the outrage can’t be prosecuted by Law or you can’t prove
the event which took place, you have all rights to have your revenge. It
absolutely doesn’t matter how exactly. Your vengeance can be performed
through violence... or some kind of Black Magic’s ritual (although very
little number of people are skillful enough in this knowledge...), but
the sweetest reprisal is the mental one, based not on the raw and primitive
physical power, but on the intellect. Already by this you’ll prove your
ethical and spiritual superiority over the enemy. Crush him down mentally,
reach the spot hidden deep beneath his very soul, strike there and make
your slave out of him, turn him to worthless, wretched being, trample his
Personality and then give his life into the hands of ruthless Fate - this
is the most honied revenge. But again, don’t forget that destroying human
Personality you break the most important law, so you has to be offended
enough seriously to have rights for such a Punishment.
