I didn’t want anybody seeing my fire until I burned them with it.

About This Quote

This quote is a perfect example of the beauty of revenge, and how it can be both sweet and toxic. Revenge is a powerful thing, and it’s not always clear when it’s appropriate to take revenge. What if you were wronged? What if you can prove that you have been wronged? That’s the tricky part about the word revenge. It is a powerful thing that can be effective in a lot of cases, but used in the wrong way, it can be both a huge mistake and a potentially harmful thing. But when used right…when used properly…when used for the right reason, revenge can be absolutely fantastic.
