Vengeance! That Is The First, The Only Thought, When A Man Finds Himself Victimized, When His Honor And Fortune, His Present And Future, Are Wrecked By A Vile Conspiracy! The Torment He Endures Under Such Circumstances Can Only Be Alleviated By The Prospect Of Inflicting Them A Hundredfold Upon His Persecutors. And Nothing Seems Impossible At The First Moment, When Hatred Surges In The Brain, And The Foam Of Anger Rises To The Lips; No Obstacle Seems Insurmountable, Or, Rather, None Are Perceived.

And On Setting To Work, How Many Discouragements Arise! The Fever Of Revolt Passes By, And The Victim Wavers. He Still Breathes Bitter Vengeance, But He Does Not Act. He Despairs, And Asks Himself What Would Be The Good Of It? And In This Way The Success Of Villainy Is Once More Assured. [more]
