Avenging

He who will avenge every affront means not to live long.

If I had avenged every wrong, I had not worn my shirt so long.

It is often better not to see an insult than to avenge it.Seneca.

The avenging gods have their feet clothed in wool. (Noiseless is the approach of the avenging deities.)
