Authority


Know how to play the card of contempt. It is the most politic kind of revenge.

For there are many of whom we should have known nothing if their distinguished opponents had taken no notice of them.

There is no revenge like oblivion, for it is the entombment of the unworthy in the dust of their own nothingness.

Baltasar Gracian, 1601 - 1658
