Getting Even Quotes

Revenge can only be found on the road to self-destruction.

Wayne Gerard Trotman

One bad turn does not excuse another.

Richelle E. Goodrich

Vengeance is a monster of appetite, forever bloodthirsty and never filled.

Richelle E. Goodrich

The only people who you should get even with are those who have helped you.

It is not unreasonable to want repentance from a wrongdoer before forgiving that wrongdoer, since, in the absence of repentance, hasty forgiveness may harm both the forgiver and the wrongdoer. The forgiver may be harmed by a failure to show self-respect. The wrongdoer may be harmed by being deprived of an important incentive - the desire to be forgiven - that could move him toward repentance and moral rebirth.
